C market and below sfr flips may look sexy on paper when you look at market rent and lower costs and turnkey etc etc, but they introduce many pitfalls, particularly in KCMO C class proper, where troublesome tenants can acquire city funded attorneys to drag out evictions.

I’m comparing a few markets and deal types. Would love to hear what’s realistic out there right now.

What kind of loan contingency did you get in the contract?

I need a GC , property manager recs too, so kindly if you guys love some who you work with and don't mind to share, send them my way. 

What’s the quickest close you’ve ever pulled off, and what kind of financing made it possible?

If you want to be in that kind of area then I would recommend the buy and hold route, those (typically) have better numbers rather than flips, but it depends on what is "good" to you.

Anyone else deal with this kind of insanity near a “city-managed” neighbor?

Quote from @Austin Fowler: Would love to hear from people actively raising equity capital for deals and the kinds of returns you routinely project to attract capital.

No other lender I’ve worked with has ever pulled this kind of last-minute change.

I’ve worked with investors for a while now, and I’ve seen the kind of money they make on these properties, so I figured it was time to join the party.After walking through so many properties with investors and sitting in on meetings with general contractors, I’ve realized that where most people lose money is in the acquisition stage, when you don’t fully assess the property and miss major issues.
