I am Akeem, a graduate engineering student currently based in the Piedmont-Triad area of North Carolina looking to invest in my first multifamily property.

Yea, I'll stick to the algorithm for now and see what happens.

Your target, from what you wrote, would be cheaper renters looking for a value stay that is clean, but unspectacular.If you market is saturated, you will keep going lower and lower in the algorithm which will indirectly restrict booking.

Quote from @Samuel Diouf: I think you need to look at different markets and really think about your goals and reverse engineer from there.

I’ve seen a lot of investors really boost cash flow when they start layering in engineered cost segregation studies too, especially on long-term holds.

I've been involved on the consultant side as the Civil engineer for the client/property owner.

For example, I built a machine learning algorithm similar to HouseCanary for the MLS for my business.

I am a recent veteran who is currently a software engineer and would like to acquire my first rental property within the next 3 - 6 months.

My wife works full-time as an engineering manager for the Boeing Company.

I'm 24 and work as a Mechanical Engineer.
