Street appeal, rental rates, anything else they “See”.  

First one could be OK as its north of downtown the other one is in south Jackson.question will be if they are not occupied have they been stripped.

I did my background research and found out that I could possibly find a lender that would fund the deal as a DSCR loan as the ratio was very good at 1.25 and I had the funds for 25% deposit.However, I haven't been able to close with the initial lender that pre-approved me as a new investor because one of the units in the 5-unit was a Studio and the size was under 400sqft (as against their internal requirements).I have been under contract for the past 3 months and only have 28 days left to close, if not I'll lose my Earnest Deposit and all the time and efforts I've put into making this deal work and currently not able to find a lender that can fund this deal as they keep informing me that I have NO Experience as an Investor - as my first property is still under 1 Year.Please...I'm asking all knowledgeable investors and direct lenders here to come to my aid at this point as I don't want to lose the property nor the money I've spent so far in this deal.

Me and my partner have this duplex in Minneapolis in the north east area, which I would consider easily a B class area and we are priced vary reasonable compared to the comps we have ran.

North Carolina, for instance, offers robust opportunities in single-family rentals due to sustained population growth, diverse job sectors in technology and healthcare, and accessible entry points in cities like Charlotte and Raleigh, where local networks are readily available through active investor communities.If you'd like to discuss further, we are happy to help.

Once you have a chance to look into other states like Oregon, Ohio, Indiana, Florida, Tennessee, North Carolina, and most recently New England (MA, NH,VT, MN).
