:)  If your ARV and rehab costs are on target, and you include your fee, that is the same formula we use.  

As a woman owned company I was told that we for sure got targeted.

@Andrew Johnson funny you mentioned Detroit, because I'm playing with the idea of moving my target rental market from the DC area (which is highly saturated, and has already appreciated) to Baltimore City (which probably has more C and D class neighborhoods, but with the right property manager can cash flow).

From the numbers I've run here on BP, I would need to get the house about $15k-20K below asking price for it to fit my target numbers.

Its the same formula I've been using for 7+ years - Targeted letters. 

Take advantage of that.I'm not telling you to go after "bad" areas because they look good on paper, but it is the paper that should be dictating your target markets.  

My target would be 100 or less pads per site.

I am not their target market and have never bought their product but I know their story and their little pink cars.

The area I drove was very nice, right next to a school, a nice lake, although a bit further away from Danbury where we have stuff like Home Depot, Target, and a mall.So the question is: How do we figure out why there are so many distressed properties in New Fairfield?

There's a med school nearby and this is in a popular area but looking for any insights on how i could best target the market I'm looking to rent to in the next 60 days.What other information could I provide to help answer my question?
