I have stated that when you have gross rents of $400-$700 monthly, it will most likely average out to be in the ballpark of 50%, but as rents increase to amounts above $1000 per month, the ratio or percentage decreases due to a variety of factors (which will not be explained here).The purpose of this post is to get some viable data from many individuals who have rental units with monthly rental rates in excess of $1,000 (per door) and have at least 3 years of financials.

Prices in France are decreasing but regulations and taxes can be cumbersome.

There are many variables to consider in this evaluation process and in addition to the things that you listed to look for (crime rate, neighbourhood appearance) here are a few more variables I would consider when assessing the an area:- Proximity to amenities (grocery stores, fitness centres)- Distance to public transit (ie. terminals and bus stops) and other transportation improvements  - Whether the neighbourhood as a whole is in transition to increase or decrease in quality - Building of new infrastructure - Moving in of a major employer One other tidbit of advice I heard recently which I thought was great is to follow the big box stores (ie. walmart).

Granted you can manage yourself and do repairs yourself, decreasing costs, but you should also account for your time which must be worth something, right?

As anybody knows, a decreasing population is the death knell for property prices, especially on a grand scale like that;5) Once you have renovated, how are you gonna get your money back, let alone make a profit?

This decreases the number of renters, leading to a decrease in rent.The critical driver for rising prices and rents is population growth.

Getting into a deal with a hml sucks if one can't get construction crews out there on time and the project lasts longer than you thought decreasing your yield.
