I will secure the loan for everything.

Now we're seeing investors pouring money into buying Class C rentals - but, many are getting burned.In our experience & opinion, the main determinant of property Class is not location or even property condition, those are #2 and #3.

But the location is great, and the layout could work for a flip or a rental with multiple units.Would you take this on, or does it seem like more hassle than it’s worth?

Securing Lending shouldn't become a hurdle is the Deal numbers works. 

It takes a lot of energy to thoroughly vet a deal and a borrower to make sure financing is secure.

There are more factors than just the community (#beds, level of theming, location to the amenities, style of home (single family, townhome, condo) and others) But I would strongly advise to stay within some of the same communities you mentioned like Storey Lake, Windsor Hills, Championsgate and a few others if cash flow is your goal.

Your location, your list, your approach, market conditions, time of year etc.The only thing I can tell you with 100% certainty is you'll need to SMS a lot more people than you will need to cold call.

I do it manually (and keep in mind, it also depends on the state and location - VRBO does for some and not for others, Airbnb does for some and not for others) I know many folks happy with Avalara though. 

Therefore you're paying off the LOC at 2300 each month.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------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?
