And the reason Tyler in my mind got anything done on his house was his brilliant move to bring his rehab and purchase to BP and make it public this put pressure on Morris to do something.this is a very sad thing but way up in the thread and for anyone who has followed me for close to 20,000 posts the pictures of Tylers Morris house is simply Normal.. this is  what happens to low value assets.Now he restarted and at least bought something that has half a chance he moved up the rental food chain.. all these people buying low end houses and low end duplex's in INdy are in for a roller coaster ride.

Two weeks later I stopped by the unit (was passing by and decided to take a look) and found that someone was using the shower and leaving food and clothes in the house with visible intent to return.

You could lease part for food service or coffee shop and some retail space, a small health club, massage. 

This campus hosts a large Magnolia home goods store, high end furniture store, cupcake bakery, coffee shop, gardening shop, live music concert venue, large grass area with toys and balls for kids to play with, an open plaza with eight food trucks, a small baseball field (that Babe Ruth once played on and families can now play on for fun), a restored historic chapel (the oldest chapel in Central Texas), and six boutique shops with men, women, and children's products.

Food for thought. 

You are twice as likely to die in a bike accident, 4x as likely to choke on food, and about 90x more likely to die in a car accident.

I appreciate all the food for thought!

(Everyone complains that they can smell each other's food and smoke and  in each other's apartments ) The building is in Northern Jersey where I believe the building is responsible to provide ventilation by law. 

You can't compete against the all-inclusives unless you offer complimentary food and booze or you're cheap, as you seem to be confirming.This being said:1) Properties in Mexico/Cancun trade in USD so you have no foreign exchange risk in Mexico while properties in Colombia are traded in COP, the Colombian peso, which has been tanking over the years, eliminating any hope for capital gains for American investors.2) You can get a mortgage in Mexico but you can't in Colombia so even with lower revenue, Cancun would likely still be more profitable, even if you don't take capital gains into account.3) The political risk is much higher in Colombia, especially at this present time.Is Cartagena a bad investment?

With Morganton’s growing population, influx of major corporations like Tyson Foods, and frequent visitors traveling to and from the mountains, this property is perfectly positioned for long-term growth and profitability.
