These were Class B / B+ long-term rentals in Grand Rapids suburbs (not Class C).The goal was stable tenants, lower management friction, and predictable cash flow rather than max yield.

Quote from @Allan Smith: CG is world class. 7 figure flipping I can't remember who does that one but it sounds like a guru name.

One thing I'd add: before picking your market, run the numbers on 3-4 properties in each area using the 1% rule as a starting filter.

If you target Class C, you better be prepared emotionally & financially for plenty of challenges.You can find Class B properties in the Midwest to BRRRR, but it will take more digging and YOU will need to understand how to analyze & identify them - because a lot of agents, wholesalers, PMCs, etc. will try to sell you Class C or D misrepresented as Class B:Many of them don't know/care what Class the properties are, so they're incompetent.Others know exactly what they are doing, so should be labeled as crooks!

So here is a deal on a Pioneer - 50" Class LED 4K UHD Smart Roku TV.

In San Diego, that means you want neighborhoods where the average owner is buying themselves a home, not their fourth rental.Acquisition criteria: look for class C neighborhoods trending toward class B.

I've found that I'm less flexible when all my units are tied up in bigger buildings.Are you looking at C-class neighborhoods where you'll get decent cash flow, or B-class where appreciation is the bigger play?

Cash-flowing markets (B and C class) are where cap rates are still decent -- you can actually get 6-7% on the rental income.

We could have played it safe with Class A, but we chose Class B for the upside.

Hi BP community,I have been investing in single-family and multi-family properties in class C neighborhoods in Cincinnati for the past 10 years, with great success.
