What are everyone’s thoughts on purchasing properties with tenants in place currently paying below market rents?

I'm an out of state investor and I purchased a duplex in May (Fayetteville Arkansas next to the college).

Hi Team,I'm looking for recommendations on the best established and up-and-coming spots to purchase a turnkey rental or buy land and build from scratch in Central and South America.

I am purchasing my first investment property out in Cleveland and need some help figuring out the financing portion.

.- Consider holding periods: With a potentially slower market, be prepared for slightly longer holding periods between purchase and sale.- Target desirable areas: Research neighborhoods with strong fundamentals, good schools, and amenities that attract buyers.- Stay informed: Keep a close eye on market trends, interest rates, and local economic factors that could impact your investmentsI also lend on fix and flip projects so let me know if you're looking to get an additional quote for your next flip! 

And you wouldn't be able to get it in writing until AFTER you purchased the property. 

Just wandering if I need to provide copies of receipt for the actual materials (example pitching cabinet purchase)  or is the builders receipt enough when doing a LTC refinance?

There is a lot more that should be said, but I would say figure out your time horizon for buying a property, North or West SA, find what purchase price you can afford, how much you can put towards a rehab, how fast can the rehab be done, and your exit strategy for when it is flipped.

If the patio or walkway was damaged (ie large cracks or uneven), then you should fix it as it poses a trip hazard.
