@James KieferRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.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 Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?

I own and manage mostly class B and B+ single family homes and condos, but I have heard that evictions have ticked up in class C, that’s one of the problems with chasing cash flow is getting into class C and dealing with a tenants that are not as well qualified and higher risk of default to begin with.

This helps give you a 30,000 over view of what a potential city/zip/street is like https://www.areavibes.com/It gives you a total livability score and this is the criteria I have come up with over time.80 and above A+78/79 A76/77 A-74/75 B+72/73 B70/71 B-68/69 C+66/67 C64/65 C-60/63 D59 and below FCheers from Fort Worth, TX 

In our property, the house was open to the air in the damp environment of coastal Florida, no heat or A/C at the house.  

I would say most of these areas are going to be a C class type area.

I started to invest two years ago in 2 SFR in Birmingham, AL (type C homes). 

@Connor Thomas see our cut & paste knowledge below:------------------------------------------------------------------------------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 Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?

However, I will warn you that these zip codes are not B & C areas, I have been investing in Jax since 2017 and lived there 2020-2023, and these are C and mainly D areas.

Hi @Wade C. and fellow Bigger Pockets Hosts,I’m currently in the third week of my trial with Intellihost, and I’m finding it promising so far.
