Yes, sewer clean outs are required on new construction, but on a 1947 rehab house that didn’t have existing clean outs, is it really possible that I can be required to install them?

@Jemini LeckieRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

I'm particularly interested in what tactics people have implemented for sourcing quality deals (not the I need 100% financing bs)Would you:1.

Some may want to leave without the responsibility of cleaning.

We stick to high quality neighborhoods and homes and are doing really well with it.

Also, I wanted to convey that the type of investor I describe should on;y accept a quality tenant well above what’s typically considered acceptable in the industry.

Own 10 rentals in Columbus Ohio and building another 21 new build single family houses in Florida that will be a clean BRRRR that will be free and clear.

I've walked their properties in-person, and their build quality is good.

So I just went with a clean design, laundry in the unit, HVAC, and new appliances sealed the deal IMO
