New Owens Corning Duration architectural shingles with SureNail strip will be installed with 1 ¼ inch galvanized roofing nails at six nails per shingle.11.

The "A" properties are already wired for fiber internet, and retrofitting low end properties comes with considerable cost.

@Dusty Corning What are your thoughts about Sugar Land or Richmond?

The best way I've found to implement this is lease as close to FMV initially which is typically not an issue since I have a nice, newly updated place with lots of creature comforts unusual for my area (A/C, Fiber internet, private fenced yard with lawncare, pets allowed with no fees or pet rent, completely remodeled interior (1950s original construction).

The property is an old farmhouse the seller has completely rehabbed it himself (gutted & added new spray insulation, new electric, all new plumbing, fresh sheet rock & paint, all new windows (cheaper Andersons double pane), brand new fiber-cement siding, 13 yr old shingles, appliances approx 5 yrs old (beautiful stainless in lower unit).

I think of it as getting back the seed corn. 

The area is nice, though its mostly corn fields around it.

Investment Info:Large multi-family (5+ units) buy & hold investment in Corning.

If your 5 houses already have services (water, sewer, elec, gas, fiber) you might see what the cost is to run those services to the new lots.

As the world becomes more dependent on high speed information access, direct access to major fiber optic bundles becomes critical.
