Given the fallout, you can imagine how burbs and downtown will polarize as businesses and people reconfigure themselves to suit a lifestyle and economy reflective of post covid-19 impacts. 

The places that need work are being snatched up by developers, who are scraping lots and building luxury new construction.

Spreadsheets, finance, and calculators are my strong suit.

Removed debris and overgrowth on property, new siding, windows, exterior doors, total gut of interior including removing walls and re-engineering structure to support roof trusses and ceiling joists, rebuilt staircase to accommodate new kitchen design, replaced entire block foundation wall that was heaving inward, replaced sewer drains in entire home including underground, drain tiled, and rebuilt both bathrooms and prepared current garage to be remodeled to become master bedroom and bath suite.

Real estate investors could soon be calling this room the “owner’s suite” or “primary bedroom” instead of master bedroom.

Develop your criteria, then find the market or neighborhood to suit it.

After all, who needs to wear a suit and tie (or pants, for that matter) if you’re working from home?

It sounds like the price to rent ratio in your area just doesn't work.BRRRR is best suited for lower priced properties that still return solid rents.You might be trying to force a strategy that doesn't necessarily work for your market.

I typically shoot apartments and condos, from basic to luxury, however, I shoot duplexes as well. 

If you show your tenants that you don't care about your property, your tenants will follow suit.
