I have invested in numerous syndications and think I have a decent handle on what to look at when considering opportunities, looking to get better. I am looking for what people use as criteria or money rules for when you consider what a synidicator is presenting.  This is excluding location in specific cities. (Why you ask? - trying to make sure that deals are able to actually double my money over 5 years, I know it highly depends on the leadership/syndication team and population growth of the city, but if things slow down, how do I make sure I have a cash flowing, longer term hold property that is has a larger group of people wanting to purchase it later on when it is time to sell the property)

• Meaning, do you only invest in:
• Class a,b,or c properties?
• 1980 or newer, or older (does year matter to investors)?
• Things are a deal breakers (for the property) - Aluminum wiring, cast iron pipes, iron water line, etc..?
• Hud tenants, war zones, opportunities zones, located on a freeway or ?
• only over 100 units, only less than 300 units, does the count matter over 100?
• must haves - pool, washer dryer in units, security fencing, carports, garages???
• Flood zone ok, never do flood zone?
• Flat roofs only / pitch roofs only - does it even matter?
• What other criteria to most people use?
• Really appreciate any help and advice.  Thank you!
