Many OOS investors set themselves up for failure because they don't invest the time to ACTUALLY understand:1) The Class of the NEIGHBORHOOD they are buying in - which is relative to the overall area.2) The Class of the PROPERTY they are buying - which is relative to the overall area.3) The Class of the TENANT POOL the Neighborhood & Property will attract - which is relative to the overall area.4) The Class of the CONTRACTORS that will work on their Property, given the Neighborhood location - which is relative to the overall area.5) The Class of the PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANIES (PMC) that will manage their Property, given the Neighborhood location and the Tenants it will attract - which is relative to the overall area.6) That a Class X NEIGHBORHOOD will have mostly Class X PROPERTIES, which will only attract Class X TENANTS, CONTRACTORS AND PMCs and deliver Class X RESULTS.7) That OOS property Class rankings are often different than the Class ranking of the local market they live.8) Class A is relatively easy to manage, can even be DIY remote managed from another state.

@Joseph A. I

I haven't driven through in a couple years, but it was selling way below other areas.LOCATION: Pinewood, Miami/Dade county --nw 10th ave and NW 95th St just a block north across from the PMC North Shore Medical Center.

We've all heard of all the ways that AI is going to take over all our jobs, our governments, and eventually overtake us terminator style. 

@AI D. thank you for the feedback and insights. 

What I was thinking was more along the lines of either:A) Rent prices, since those are less subject to the whims of desperate, emotional homebuyers (this is why a computer will never really be able to predict home prices, or at least not with modern tech)B) Change in rental rates, or median home value, based on economic shocks that could happen, like a large employer moving in or out of an areaNot sure if these would be any more feasible, but they seem less driven by emotion

Suppose Tenant A is the only tenant on the lease.

Here's some other things to SERIOUSLY keep in mind:)Many OOS investors set themselves up for failure because they don't truly take the time to understand:1) The Class of the NEIGHBORHOOD they are buying in - which is relative to the overall area.2) The Class of the PROPERTY they are buying - which is relative to the overall area.3) The Class of the TENANT POOL the Neighborhood & Property will attract - which is relative to the overall area.4) The Class of the CONTRACTORS that will work on their Property, given the Neighborhood location - which is relative to the overall area.5) The Class of the PROPERTY MANAGEMENT COMPANIES (PMC) that will manage their Property, given the Neighborhood location and the Tenants it will attract - which is relative to the overall area.6) That OOS property Class rankings are usually vastly different than the local market they live in.7) That a Class X NEIGHBORHOOD will have mostly Class X PROPERTIES, which will only attract Class X TENANTS, CONTRACTORS AND PMCs and deliver Class X RESULTS.8) Class A is relatively easy to manage, can even be DIY remote managed from another state.9) Class B usually also okay, but needs more attention from owner and/or PMC10) Class C can be relatively successful with a great PMC (do NOT hire the cheapest!)

these things will be highly regional and price point driven in my mind.

Hi @Eric A., I am anxious to hear if you've made progress on buying from your landlord?
