Looked at the pics.I would power wash the sidewalk next to your building as well as the entrance and patio.They are real dirty and you can see algae growing on them.You can rent concrete pressure washer with a high PSI at Lowe's or Home Depot for cheap.Make sure you spend a little higher amount to get the high psi sprayer.Do Not use it on the house but concrete only as damage can occur.The houses use a lower psi sprayer than the concrete ones.I would say you are looking at identity disorder with this property.I get your story about it but what else is around it??

There are no appliances inside until we get a tenant and the outside AC compressor is being installed (today) with a steel security cage anchored to some concrete piers.

Are you confident that the firm will structure the offering properly to be both legally compliant and marketable?

This is where most of my business is done.Bandit Signs - affordable guerilla marketing tactic but garners a lot of calls from tire kickers, retail buyers with unrealistic ideas, etc.Newspaper ads - I was running a penny saver ad a while back and it started to get very costly because I was told I cant test an ad for 2 weeks.
