Things to consider are how to build up reserves, how to get better tenants, are the properties you have now the right fit for you, why were you only making 1K/month for working Jan-March?

I have enough reserves for 3-6 months and a certain point it’s “cheaper” to have a place vacant with utilities turned down versus non-reviewed guests at bargain rates, a month’s worth of belongings, and a guilt trip ready at hand when I tell them it’s not a good fit.

The people in the room you "really" want to meet will probably just watch you for now to see if you are a fit for them too.

@Hunter Phillips never a bad time to buy something that fits your criteria.

Isaac,Perhaps your investing criteria is too much and will not fit your market. maybe you are looking for a certain return on your investment that the area historically does not produce, maybe the average return is 8% vs a 10% return that you may be looking for, I am not saying you should switch your investment tactic, but just try to look into what the area is like by possibly talking to other investors in the area you may know.

It fits in pretty perfect with the OP title.

However you still have a few options here that balance tenant safety with vacancy reduction: If/when possible, use a video walkthrough and floor mapping software to help tenants know if their stuff will fit in the space. 

Definitely agree there is no one size fits all approach to underwriting in any market, but also looking to get a sense for what changes we're bracing for at this early stage.

.- I have picked an OS market that fits my RE goals (cash flow!!)

Figure out if they're a good fit.
