Ooops Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

@Tove Fox hope you find this copy & paste useful:)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend 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?

Before committing, I’d highly recommend researching demand in your target area and connecting with operators who already run similar rentals there.A tiny home or glamping concept could be a huge hit in a market where it’s fresh and unique, but in areas where it’s been done before, you’ll need to bring something innovative to stand out.

In fact, I would want to go even lower because there's a very good chance some damage is hidden and costs will run higher than anticipated.If you aren't experienced, I recommend you just buy the good apple. 

I could write an essay on why, but as someone who manages nearly 1,000 doors up and down the I-25 corridor, I can tell you these are not the investment vehicles I recommend to my clients and they are not what I personally would ever own. 

Any recommendations?

I highly recommend you study this, practice it, and apply it.https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/rental-property-cash-flow...Property Details:Type: Single-family homePurchase Price: $289,900Down Payment: 20% ($57,980)Loan Amount: $231,920Interest Rate: 6.85%Loan Term: 30 yearsMonthly Mortgage Payment:Using a mortgage calculator, your principal and interest will cost $1,515 per monthRental Income:Average Rent for Single-Family Home: $2,171 per monthOperating Expenses:Property Taxes: $300 per monthInsurance: $100 per monthMaintenance and Repairs: Budgeting 5% of rental income ($109 per month)Vacancy Rate: Assuming 5% vacancy ($109 per month)Property Management Fees: If outsourced, typically 10% of rental income ($217 per month)Total Monthly Expenses:Operating Expenses: $835Mortgage Payment: $1,515Total Expenses: $2,350Net Monthly Cash Flow:Rental Income: $2,171Total Expenses: $2,350Net Cash Flow: -$179 per monthConclusion:In this scenario, the rental income of $2,171 per month does not fully cover the total monthly expenses of $2,350, resulting in a negative cash flow of $179.

I recommend you include some of your key qualification criteria in the advertisement.

@Michael Nelson - I'd recommend you speak with @Devin Peterson

@Charlotte WilsonIf you will be occupying one of the units, I recommend 5% down conventional rather than FHA.
