It is very important that you have good systems and/or a good property manager.My final comment is that if it is all too much, if your family is suffering over the properties, then it is OK to sell the properties.

A few years back, some of the best "artistic" class C/D properties in these areas can been flipped or upgraded so you might have to look outside of Broadripple, Fountain Square for a killer deal,  Irvington is a "maybe" I'd say for up and coming, but we've had so much flooding of flips the last few years I think it's suffering a bit of lag because of it. 

There was a large black spot on the carpet from where the previous owner let water overflow from his plants he would water, didn't know that until after I closed.

I’d run like a bat out of hell from a lagoon or a water treatment plant , though.Again, it is best to get some input from an experienced operator but consider this:  if a newbie who has just been reading books and listening to podcasts can pinpoint red flags, you know that’s a deal to run from.  

Depending on the language, the buyer may be able walk and  only suffer the consequence of losing the deposit. 

Suburbs will suffer.

The new Volvo plant is within 30 miles away and has already started producing cars. 

The owner had no idea about the tax lien because he was an older man suffering from memory loss, but when doing an arm's length deal and acting without and agent it's important to do your research.

I've got a good handle on what the property is worth, but am sticking a bit on the value of planted pine.  

But your cash flow suffers and there is the potential for negative cash flow because rents don't hit the 1% of purchase price mark.Cash Flow Markets - the midwest.
