"WARNING ALL Louisianians due you due diligence"

Before i start this discussion, just let say that Louisiana will always bounce back and rebuild bigger and better than ever! I am newly implanted into the world of real-estate investing, not real estate, i was a realtor working within the baton rouge community for a couple of years, we have been hit hard in the recent years with natural cataclysmic forces that have changed the landscape of the red-stick community we call home, aka Louisiana. I am working with a couple of local realtors and they feed me leads, one in particular caught my eye! (16) 4-plex *********great rental for student or investor in Baker.....renting $700/month tenant pays all utilities, HOA fees include prop. mangmnt, maint, grounds. etc $500, so with this is was all excited but i still needed to due the #'s as i have become accustomed to saying, "know your #'s!" although this wasn't in my target area, taxe are less than br i still accounted for the property accordingly, this could be give me enough cap rate plus monthly cash-flow, etc. but in this business always due your "due-diligence", i will blog some of the pictures i took of this project before and after the recent flooding in the near future, let's just say a pix or pictures can speak a thousand words, no words can explain it better than devastation...........it will be 6-8 mos before this project can go forth, and you bets to believe that i will be checking back around feb 17, if you are investor let me know what kinds of experiences you may have had and what's your due diligence piece or peace!
