Based on what you said about market seasonality, it sounds like an attractive home at an affordable price point will sell quickly no matter what time of year.  

The main attraction for me is to have a "track to run on" as opposed to being attracted to the "next shiny object".  

The rates are very attractive on primary residences, but not worth the low balance (compared to the amount of equity that would be left un-allocated). 

Service offering squeeze pages + optimized PPC campaigns to attract leads to what ever area, you want. check it out!

I am currently a Freelance Art Director in the Film/TV industry as well as an Onsite Manager at the apartment building I live in.

But the more units he owns, the more attractive the package will be to his buyer.

That could make the whole thing more attractive to a potential investor and could impact my offer.Thoughts?

The laws in Sharjah about rent locking for 3 years makes it less attractive to me personally, but again I can't say much because I haven't studied the emirate yet.

We were forced to quickly learn the ins and outs of the local court, evicting 5 residents, and starting the process in several other cases, prompting the tenants to leave.Key lessons gleaned during the first year were:1)To attract good tenants, you need to have attractive properties.

Truthfully, if you bring this type of deal to an investor, they will self-evaluate...but time is valuable, so a complete scope of work with a comp analysis all bundled up makes the deal initially attractive, which is what you want (what is my cash on cash, ROI, Cap rate, IRR, etc...)...otherwise you run the risk of getting caught up with someone that can't close on the property...if @Richard Francois actually considered taking title to this property, he would be F"*cked rather quickly.
