Cash for keys will be my first option.

Looking at this past week's CMI, it's interesting to see the buyer/seller positioning in the SE-ish area compared to the NW-ish area with rates high 6's in JanuaryStill bullish on W/NW future demand due to TSMC factory and other companies (dashboard snapshot below) but time will tell.

You could also check out options like Cozy or TenantCloud for similar features.When converting to LTR, just keep an eye on local rental laws, lease terms, and any rent control rules that might apply.

The other option is PriceLabs. 

I am slowly going crazy with how expensive Massachusetts is and I am leaning towards looking at cheaper foreclosure properties.I understand there is some risk to this but I am beginning to think this is the only option I will have because of how fast the market is growing.Thank you for any insight you may have!

Yes quite a few of our 5,000 options have rate and term or purchase!

My biggest piece of advice would be to find someone who is in the position you would want to be in 10, 15, or 20 years and meet for coffee.

that we’ve learned in our 24 years, managing almost 700 doors across the Metro Detroit area, including almost 100 S8 leases:Class A Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% the more recent norm.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 680+ (roughly 5% probability of default), zero evictions in last 7 years.Class B Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, decent amount of relative rent & value appreciation.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, 5% should be applied only if proper research done to support.Tenant Pool: Majority will have FICO scores of 620-680 (around 10% probability of default), some blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 5 yearsClass C Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, high cashflow and at the lower end of relative rent & value appreciation.

In Launch Control, we're not required to put the opt-out msg (not is Smarter Contact, it's an option). 

For smaller deals like owner finance options, it's important to build a strong relationship with the seller, as this often leads to more flexible terms.
