Not sure why that happen, however the best way to screen a potential tenant is to see how they have performed in the past. 

That said, I’ve found that properties in C-class neighborhoods tend to perform best with Section 8 tenants.

(I know a lot of investors who are doing this, but I've been surprised to find out that it's a new concept that others haven't considered.)The more units, the better in this scenario because you can hedge your bets with more units.

I can only speak to the Texas market, where malls that focus on creating consumer experiences (coffee shops, kids play area, entertainment-based tenants) are still performing well even in this age of online shopping.  

What type of loans are you buying, performing, non performing, seller financed?

If you have a lease with this tenant that allows them the dogs, you can still say they are in violation of the lease, I'll bet, by something in the lease that says they aren't to bother the neighbors or cause any disturbances, etc.

Permits and LLCs for Contractors:Your associates/relatives don’t necessarily need to create an LLC to perform renovations.

If there's a hole, it may be a red flag.b) sensitivity analysis: I examine all the assumptions, and make sure I can live with the worst case scenarios.c) "Stall and see": if they are getting money over multiple years, and there is no penalty for investing later, I would usually wait so I get some real performance data, versus having to look at theoretical pro forma information.d) Recession stress test: I will not invest in anything, until I subject it to recession level stress and see if I can live with the result.

Transaction volumes will continue to be slowed, but homes that are priced in the $160,000-$250,000 range continue to perform best right now for resale.

I’m not claiming to know it all—I’m here to learn, build relationships, and grow.Here’s what I bring to the table:A strong understanding of leveraging Net Operating Income (NOI) to secure financing and reduce out-of-pocket costs.Experience in negotiating deals and identifying opportunities, especially in the LA market where many multi-family properties are under $2 million.Skills in managing larger properties, from scheduling repairs and upgrades to optimizing operations for long-term value.The ability to use AI tools for data analysis, market insights, and deal projections to help us act quickly and efficiently.I’ll be upfront—my funds are limited after dedicating the COVID years to supporting my family, but I have the work ethic and expertise to find and manage properties that perform.
