This isn’t necessarily a dealbreaker, but I’d like to provide both myself (I plan to house hack) and my tenants with modern, comfortable living conditions.

They suffer financially while sitting on a solution they don't know exists.The IRS will issue a "Conditional Commitment to Discharge" letter that accepts available proceeds from the sale - even if those proceeds don't cover the full lien amount.

One or both are highly likely to be an investor.4) Research and post about local market conditions important to investors.

A number of things, including changes in market conditions, and failure of certain contractors to satisfactorily complete their work obligations, led to the financial failure of CALM.Unfortunately, everyone, including myself as well as Mike, Steve and Karen lost money on this venture.

I'm betting if you look in the market, you're getting low projections; a similar condition exists.

They said they do not do a deep clean in-between tenants and when I asked how the condition was when the previous tenant moved out they brushed me off. 

Property Condition & Amenities: it’s important to, “Maintain to the Neighborhood.”Key metrics for each Property Class:Class A Properties:Tenant Pool: Majority of FICO scores 680+, no convictions/evictions in last 7 years.Tenant Default: 0-5% probability of eviction or early lease termination.Section 8: Class A rents are too high and won’t be approved.Vacancies: 5-10%, depending on market conditions.Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 3-5 years for positive cashflow, but you get highest relative rent & value appreciation.Class B Properties:Tenant Pool: Majority of FICO scores 620-680, some blemishes, no convictions/evictions in last 5 years.Tenant Default: 5-10% probability of eviction or early lease termination.Vacancies: 10-15%, depending on market conditions.Cashflow vs Appreciation: Typically, 1-3 years for positive cashflow, balanced amounts of relative rent & value appreciation.Section 8: Class B rents are usually too high for the Section 8 program.Class C Properties:Tenant Pool: Majority of FICO scores 560-620, many blemishes, but should have no convictions/evictions in last 3 years.

If it’s still crickets after 7–10 days, change one variable at a time: photos, headline, concessions, or pet policy; if leads come in but don’t convert, it’s condition-to-rent gap, not marketing.

Hi,Is it good idea to invest 401k SP500 money into real estate rental property in current market conditions.

We still have some final projects to finish up on the house in OH, but they should be done within two more trips in November and December.I have a Realtor who is looking to get the house sold, but with current market conditions in the area, I believe we'd either end up losing our investment (not including labor) or just barely breaking even.
