Then there's the issue of electricity demand...It's just like gambling: really good when you're ahead, but the house always wins in the end.Curious, what is the (perceived) issue of electricity demand you refer to?

In no particular order I have listed some of the most popular markets for out of state investorsCincinnati, OhioDayton, OhioToledo, OhioYoungstown, OhioCincinnati, OhioMemphis, TennesseeSaint Louis, MissouriIndianapolis, IndianaDetroit, MichiganErie, PennsylvaniaLouisville, KentuckyMilwaukee, WisconsinJackson, MississippiEach of these markets is popular with turnkey investors because of the low barrier to entry, high rental demand & high rent to price ratio.

Vacancy will depend on the product you are providing, the market demand for that product in the specific area your property is located, the market, how you price your units etc...For example I own one duplex since 1993 that has a vacancy rate of less than 1% and I own a 9 unit bldg since 2008 that is 10%

Demand is extremely high and I think its even more of a sellers market now than it was pre-COVID.

@Diego Furlan It will depend on how the home is sold (i.e. cash, payments, etc), the area in terms of supply and demand, and the condition of the home.

In either case you can try contacting whoever you worked with to get the loan and see if they can help.I would also make sure that I had sent a certified letter to the attorney explaining the problem and demanding resolution by a date certain. 

A syndication and a partnership are completely different animals. 

It's all abut inventory, demand and the price you pay.

As Mr Brandon Turner mentioned in his book on "Managing Rental Property", we always require our tenants to pay deposit and first month's rent before or during lease signing via confirmed payment such as demand draft or cashiers check.Due to pandemic and to comply with our social distancing guidelines, we are planning to do e-sign this time and not meet if possible.

With regard to students, I speak from experience in the Niagara Region market, we are still seeing a demand for housing from international students.
