Especially for AZ.3) Class C tenants - can abuse equipment/appliances; definitely look at secondary markets for replacements.4) Drywall, HVAC, and a General “handyman” is essential to the team5) Numbers driven, know you market and definitely be conservative in reserves for repairs, I would definitely stick to 10% of gross rent roll6) It is extremely lucrative in passive cashflow if you get things dialed in.
