Then get photos and get third party verification that everything was done right prior to making your final payment to the contractor.

A final and general question - is this house worth it?

Not seeing any real gentrification because of that, IMO.On the positive side, we do finally have a new Mayor that is actually from the City, but so far he seems to be playing the same games as his predecessors.

I also like to cross-reference that data with Facebook marketplace, craigslist, Zillow and apartments.com listings to get a really good idea of expectations for rent in a specific area.

The property passed final testing by the county health department.Is this anything I should be concerned about?

As you mentioned, it might be difficult timing the sales of each of properties where you can achieve a combined exchange (multiple properties into 1 property / or a few properties).Just a quick note that may be helpful - I work with a group of investors that can help with a combined exchange into a single property and will buy it back once you've found a replacement propertie(s) as the final destination for your capital.

I used some photos with a similar aesthetic but made it very clear these are not the final photos.

I had one were we did not get to it for a while 6 months or so it was just boarded up.. when i went to sell it wholesalers were going through it said it smelled bad.. one of them finally went down to the basement and found a corpse that had been for quite a while. scared the heck out of him..

I dont know how many units you are talking about, my biggest problem was tenants having easy access to me.I finally decided to use a software and got an internal property manager so moved away from it.Currently setting up the maintenance request portion of it, so will see how it goes.

It took less than 5 minutes to enter this data into the BP Rental Calculator and see that the potential was outstanding.
