Class C tenants, all working class but we have all market renters in our 22 unit building, no Section 8s, there are good tenants out there if youre patient. 

Need to paint a rental (it's a decent, midrange kind of property - not a crack house but not a mansion, a standard middle class rental).

I own class A, B, & C rentals in high demand markets.I get 3 months upfront for almost every unit. 1st/last + 1 month security or 1st month rent + 2 months security (depending on the state.

My intention is to provide my family with appreciating assets in a separate asset class than I currently have in my portfolio, and stable passive income allowing more time with my family. 

Purchase price: $95,000 Cash invested: $1,400,000 Sale price: $2,300,000 Ground-up development of "Class A" SFR Lease to Own portfolio.

Currently in classes to get my real estate license.

I guess if it's class A, the tenants may be more particular on color schemes etc.  

There are several solid B and C class markets around Chicago where you can secure value add properties that can be purchased with 10% or less down, and still rented positive cash flow post move out.  

You have to read the ordnance, but typically there is a ‘permitted use’ which is the zoning class, then there are ‘prohibited uses,’ and in between there may be some combination of ‘’conditional uses’ or ‘performance standards’ where you can potentially use it for another authorized purpose.

We are very disciplined, only invest in class B properties.
