If you aim to be passive, walk away from BRRR, value add, rehab, deal hunting, etc...

I'm glad to hear you've got an interest in providing AH, but have you researched any S8 properties in your market or walked the neighborhoods where those properties are located?

There are some people coming back because there's a segment of the population who love living in the city and being walking distance to restaurants, stores etc. 

He could use preventative maintenance on the dogs and keep his dogs  indoors and take them for walks as needed instead of letting them run in the yard.

I would walk the property with a couple of GC's and let them give me an idea. 

I definitely don't make any money off the place, but the airbnb rentals pay for maintenance and my gas driving to and from WA :-) Question: Have any of you missed some either obvious or not so obvious red flags that would have caused you to negotiate or walk away from the deal and if so what were they?

We have lived in our apartment for nearly three years without any issues, but since April, new neighbors moved in upstairs, and the noise has become unbearable.At all hours of the day and night, it sounds like constant walking, furniture screeching, and items being dropped—even until 4 a.m.

How did you find the deal/who helped you walk through it?

Bay Area, did a local renovation where I was able to do walk throughs with the contractor, and have pretty good control of this property, can check on it multiple times a week.

This will save you on subscription costs.If you want to discuss any of this further, I'm happy to answer questions and help walk you through it.Best of luck!
