We got super lucky with out 4plex in North Austin as I found the deal here on BP, our primary house is in Cedar Park on Butter Cup creek.

A deposition or interrogatory will slice through that like a hot knife through butter in my experience. 

Residential is my bread and butter, commercial is a whole other animal.

Here is a link to a mfr, no experience with them.http://synthetic-turf.com/http://www.4specs.com/s/12/12-0530.html

Cameras are my bread and butter. 

I call these the "bread and butter homes," where most buyers will probably use an FHA loan or conventional. 

As you radiate out from the core it gets better.So if the area is $50,000 and down at retail, urban urban core in Kansas City Missouri - east of Troost, south of the River, west of I435 and north of I435 (its a loop around the city)  This is mostly ALL RENTAL not a lot of owner occupants, lots of boarded up houses and lots of vacant lots (except for a few areas that have seen revitalization)Retail area $50,000 to $100,000 it gets better:  Independence, Raytown, Grandview, Kansas City Missouri west of Troost, east of I435 or south of I435 - this is going to be bread and butter houses that we often see talked about here on BP, but there are going to be worse areas in this and better areas.Retail area $100k and up - is going to be less cash flow, higher rents, better tenants - this is going to be Johnson County, Eastern Jackson County, some areas of Grandview and some areas of Kansas City Missouri on the fringes.I can't speak to the north of the river, however, I but if you look at retail comps, it will be a good guideline.

Those with break and butter homes or those with luxury homes?

(We are installing a 50sq standing seam roof in the next two weeks) A newer option would be asphalt coated metal shingles, which are more expensive.I would recommend what ever your choice, that your make sure your contractor removes your old shingles, replaces your damaged decking, instals proper ice guard, and synthetic paper.    

I use a lot of the depot wood synthetic boards.
