Just saying there are people on BP who can vouge for you as Melanie is typically very negative towards anyone in the syndication / raising money space. 

@Steven Catudalthe 'no cash flow on a BRRRR' is typically just because you are boosting the ARV and then taking out the maximum amount you can on the refinance, often using a DSCR loan with a higher rate. 

There are tons of threads here on BiggerPockets where you have a new investor bashing a property manager, seller or turnkey guy and then when the experienced investors chime in it becomes very clear that the new investor wasn't telling the whole story and there typically wasn't any wrongdoing by the property manager, seller, turnkey guy or what have you.

@Sakib KhanRecommend 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?

@Mattin Hosh first, most cities in Metro Detroit have some type of rental property inspection every 2-3 years.It's not really a big deal 99% of the time - especially for owners who are NOT slumlords:)Also, a quick Google search will show that several states/cities are passing/considering similar legislation.One of the biggest mistakes we see newer investors making is NOT properly understanding Neighborhood/Property/Tenant Classes and naively assuming that any rental they buy will deliver Class A results.Read our copy & paste thoughts below and DM us if you'd like to dicuss more about the Detroit market:)-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?

You can use a tool like AirDNA to get estimates of property performance in your specific market and with your typical size and configuration of home.

Since new builds require upfront capital, you might not see immediate returns, but lower maintenance costs and higher rents typically make up for it long term.If you're serious about scaling with BTR, make sure you connect with experienced builders, property managers, and lenders who understand the strategy.

We typically do not buy from wholesalers due to their inflated price tag. 

House gets foreclosed on when a borrower is not paying its debt obligations - typically its mortgage.buying foreclosures is not for the faint of heart as you have no idea of the interior of these properties lastly while it can be beneficial also realize if there are a lot in an area those homes are the new comps when trying to sell so it lowers home values in an area 

Insurance typically covers only the directly damaged area, not undamaged flooring, even if it's continuous.
