build it instead of buying it. especially in the 5-50 range you are going to get garbage that's 80-120 years old in c neighborhoods. i can find land in almost any zip code and make the numbers work in columbus. or partner on a project locally. just my 2 cents but build to rent is much stronger right now in my opinion in columbus than buying existing assets 

C class or worse, you may be inheriting someone else's headaches.

Some reasons you'd need to sub your tax returns: if you have a schedule C (self employemnt) or a schedule E (rental income). 

Probably property class C not really sure. 

I would buy more efficient new boilers and then solve for A/C if needed...

With the down payment you're putting down (assuming it's at best 25%) with current interest rates, you're maybe going to be scraping a couple of backs cash flow on a Class C+ property. 

Missing ductwork and the A/C not working right could have been quickly tested during your walk through.

@Maurice Smith 2nd vote for RL Management.Regarding owner payout timing, it's easier to pay sooner for Class A rentals, because the tenant payments are more consistent.As you go from A to B, to C, etc., tenant payments are LESS consistent, so many PMCs opt to pay owners later.

Some clients who are more aggressive will invest in B-/C+/C class areas in Dayton 1-4 units and get A LOT of cash flow, but incur risks of evictions, expensive turnover renovations, and general C class neighborhood headaches.What are you looking to achieve?
