My mentality has always been, rent low enough where you don’t lose too much but have the tenants long term. 2) how do I approach offering a price increase?

I too thought about whether he's hiding something but I spoke to the current property manager and he says it's always been a MF property so the chance of underground tanks or soil contamination is quite low, isn't it? 

I do use debt, but with relatively low leverage.

Usually, the only difference is that there credit score is too low and they dont have the full down payment.

I recommend sitting back (crunching numbers along the way of course) and letting others ride the wave of low returns as you build up reserves.

They say that RE companies that claim to provide leads really only have weak web leads that have a very low, almost zero conversion rate.Any help or info with respect to these questions would be appreciated:1). 

If this PM were worth his salt, he would have presented the offer along with his own market analysis to either justify the low price or give you reason to reject the offer.I wouldn't deal with someone so flippant.

There are still markets in the United States that allow either the beginner investor, or the seasoned expert to invest at low price points in B class neighborhoods.As real estate prices have generally recovered since the financial crisis, there are still pockets that remain, where if you know what you are doing you can purchase a home for between $60,000 - $100,000 in a solid B class area with infrastructure supporting a tenant and home owner demand (Just ask all of the Midwest folks)These homes range from 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom all the way up to 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom and even duplexes.Price sensitivity is important for many reasons.

The next book I read and I'd recommend to start with was The Book on Investing in Real Estate with No (and low) Money Down by Brandon Turner.

If you have good income and good credit you can qualify for interest rate low as 9%.... if you consider that low...
