That's why, its best to shop for quality lenders. 

@Celine Li 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?

Like you mentioned , the prices are going down because a lot of people thought you could just buy a property and slap it on airbnb , expecting it to rent well without doing improvements , not realizing that the market would be overstaturated with " C and D " quality properties ( A+ are the properties i'm speaking of)I'm seeing that you can buy those type properties( A+ potential) that have simply been under utilized and 1.

If my husband and I were to start over again we would buy higher quality assets and not be focused on immediate cash flow and unit count like we were when we started this after exiting a fairly decent sized small business.

You can also sell them on sites like paperstac, debexpert or others as well as brokers like Mission Capital, Rams or Phoenix.Depending on quality of paper and interest rate will determine sales price - also I would say self servicing can have a negative impact on the sales price as the major players in the space are not fond of self servicing. 

Also make sure you have quality insurance with an umbrella policy.

I have mine really nicely furnished with good quality furniture and high end finishes (quartz, stainless steel appliances). 

It still can attract quality tenants while cash flowing monthly.

I wonder if rent control laws will be easing anytime soon in this city - other than capping rent prices, I don't think they do anything to help improve the quality of rentals.
