With that said, you're losing a bit on the numbers side because the rents don't always align well w/ higher end properties. 

I think once you can align with your future goals, you'll know which direction is best.  

@Sam KWakIf reality is aligned with your claims then why not just put your course in a book and sell it for $23.99, like a normal person?"

If the stars aligned @Reese Chappuis, what would be your ideal first project?

They seem like align with your investing goals.

(remember- management benefits from turnover and repairs, but the owner loses, so reducing turnover by proper screening must be undertaken to be certain that management's goals are aligned with the owner's goals.)Upgrade the H-E-double-hockeysticks out of the building so nobody views it as a C-property.

I have used and been happy with Jason and Josh Spector at Align Foundation. 

Plus, it is aligned with your end goal.

So the completed a bunch of rehabs and the mistakes made with your project do not align with each other.

Airika,Look at closed listings and see how closely they are aligned with their listing prices.
