This leads me back to my mother, as she approaches her end years, I hate to think about this, but she wants to leave my sister and I one of the houses I mentioned earlier.

I like new construction but all this negative feedback about Delta is a turnoff.

Sometimes it’s the small steps that lead to the biggest leaps.

Also, focus on 2 years of job/income stability.Class D Properties:Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, all cashflow with little, maybe even negative, relative rent & value appreciationVacancy Est: 20%+ should be used to cover nonpayment, evictions & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores under 560 (almost 30% probability of default), little to no good tradelines, lots of collections & chargeoffs, recent evictions.

It's an estimated cash on cash return given current rental rates subtract expenses assuming 7% interest rate, 10% management fee, 5% repairs, 5% capex and other expenses like mortgage, insurance, tax. it's a estimate to tell you what properties to analyze vs ignoreyou can see the are pockets of negative returns as well as pockets of positive return. this is to supplement the data @Devin Conley provided

All the leads I've found so far have balked at either the "investment property" requirement, the "in California" requirement (or both!)

It could indicate they lack sufficient knowledge or experience in professional property management, which may lead to costly issues for you down the line.

This lead to piecing together payments here and there and drastically slowed the construction process and major cost overruns.

I have made my own list of leads as well with some properties that I find vacant, probate, tax lien. but have only helped an out of state realtor on a deal a yr ago. and 2025 I would like to have the right people to go to with questions and or properties when I talk/find home owners that are willing to get rid of the property as well. 

I’ve been on a journey for about eight years now, moving from a negative net worth to a modest level of wealth, with goals to keep growing indefinitely.
