With the prevalence of remote work policies, many people opted to leave affordable apartments living near work in and around metros to live an hour or two outside of their work location to get much more space for their money.

By targeting better locations, leveraging Section 8 for consistent cash flow, and balancing low acquisition costs with high guaranteed rents, you've achieved impressive results like $1,100 in net cash flow on a single property.

What if you had 5-8 paid off rental properties in great shape in great locations? 

Below is some copy & paste info about our methodology:----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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 property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Great location! 

They do not write policies in Louisiana where all of my properties are located. 

I've narrowed down the best return for my money in this market to a 2 bed/2 bath (with top tier amenities) - about 500 total 2/2 listings.I'm finding myself a bit stuck when analyzing why certain properties are making so much higher than the average listings when they seem to have very similar locations, amenities, style, flow of home, beds/# of people they sleep, reviews, number of reviews, etc.

I read Brian Burke’s book and concluded I wanted to go with a syndicator who was vertically integrated in all phases and also geographically concentrated such that they were experts in one  location.

@Christina Galdieri Sorry, the actual location doesn't matter.
