Hi Everyone, I am conflicted on the current state of my real estate investing journey and wanted some external opinions on the matter. 

They are priced too high, the comps don't support their ARV, the homes have negative external factors like sitting on a busy street or next to a commercial building.So to answer your question - Yes people are still buying flips.

I invested in a town house because I need help maintaining the the external part of the building.

The exception would be a building with an external fire escape.They should have checked this before they rented.

We view the higher HOA as if we had to pay for an external property manager. 

Can anyone provide a general price for a new external door for an apartment complex in a cold weather area?

We had the previous tenants leave and were able to handpick our new neighbors and its worked out very well.

The contractor guessed it is from the external pipe of issue, though is more concerned with fixing the pipe and cleaning up things at the moment.Whoever replaced the sprinkler head in the front yard did not secure it properly as it had come unattached sometime during the night, with water pouring over the road when the sprinklers were turned on.

Any banks out there that make it simple for a business to personal external transfer without fees?

There's a well-known phenomenon in larger balloon-framed buildings in extreme climates where the joists dry out and shrink closer to the external walls and retain more moisture and hold to their original dimensions better in the middle of the building.
