The Tenant Classgreatly impacts rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.Both Property Classand Tenant Class affect what type of contractors, handymen and property management companies will work on a property.If you buy & renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what Tenant Class will rent it?

They should be, the council passing this shows that they cannot be trusted to implement what the voters voted for and if they get a voter approved tax increase they will modify it to meet their desires regardless of it being very different than what the voters (barely) approved.I have 7 city of San Diego trash fee impacted.  ~$500/year * 7 is $3.5k.

Hello @Mat Garcia,While there may be population declines at national levels, local factors have a much bigger impact on RE.

Sure, they could call the loan due or force them out or whatever but FHFA has no teeth in actual investigations as that is done by the FBI. 

The ones in my price range either go so fast you don't have time to react (cash deals, hard money investors )or they don't take FHA financing so I'm forced to either try to convince them or sit on the sidelines while it gets sold elsewhere.

My agent told me it's a normal thing to see in older properties like that, but I was scared of the impact of such water on the foundation in the future. 

What impact has your skiptracing choice had on your KPIs (response rates, leads converted, cost per lead)?

and holding- when you do this the gains are massive, you force equity by 15-20% (avg home price in Chicago is 375K, going this route on that amount will force between $50-100K of appreciation on the avg home!

Regardless, renovating properties to force equity is the way to go!
