Original plan was to flip it, then started considering renting because of the area but now, I think the original plan of flipping might be the best route.

Our original plan was to invest in Clayton County, hence all the areas described above.We're using the BP deal calculator and looking to get to a monthly cash flow number of $200/month with a return of at least 10% (after all expenses allocated for: PITI, CapEx 10%, R&M 8%, vacancy 8%, property management 8% and other PM "other fees" 4%.

As such, many have separated the electrical, but kept the original water and gas service.We've overcome this in several ways to end up with strong numbers, but they've all involved charging above-market rents.By the room leases—A 2b/1b apartment that could get $900 to a family is rented at $600/rm to students.Furnished apartments—People understand they're paying above market rent for an all-in place to stay.
