If an existing rental for sale already has issues and complaints, that would be a red flag to me.

In my area 200k S.F.H are a bidding war  most are  bidding  over 10 to 15K may be more of course the issues of the  home/location  will push the $ up and down .Market is RED hot !

Many of these sub-coaches only have 1500-2000 units under their belt (red flag)c) You want to make sure the group is actively doing deals - how many members are in a General Partnership?

Until you get somebody that will help you wade through all the red tape of closing and paperwork, etc, I suggest you start by looking at the source of funds people are claiming they have along with their offer.

I just wish the money here had big, seedy holograms that sparkled in the dark on it, like Euro notes.I love counting cash rent in front of the Americans who pay it to me.

@Preston Humbard I like Hixson but Red Bank and East Ridge are good as well

then that may be a red flag. 

Is this a red flag?

I would like to buy these properties using my conventional banker rather than jump through all the red tape and reporting that the USDA program offers.

The market is red hot from what I am seeing currently in Greenville.
