So we often have to remediate this and touch paint.

It’s often easier to handle it directly or try talking to your neighbor about sharing the cost.

The thread was started by @Jonathan GreeneAfter reading through a number of replies, there was one poster  that mention his son and his son’s accomplishments that were going to take place and some that had already happened. it really got me to thinking.So many times people count their accomplishments and goals for themselves, but how often do we consider helping fulfill the accomplishments of our family, especially our children as a personal accomplishment for ourselves? 

Relationships often lead to off-market deals and valuable partnerships.Consider targeting up-and-coming neighborhoods or distressed properties in areas seeing new development or infrastructure improvements.If you’re exploring commercial, maybe start with small multifamily units (like duplexes or fourplexes) before diving into larger complexes.I’d love to connect and possibly collaborate.

Admittedly, pricing will often account for any major items, and I don't believe this is true in Sandy Springs, but there are some areas that an interstate cuts off a small part of the neighborhood, and so labeling the neighborhood as "good" may be true for 90% of that neighborhood, but if you are in the 10% that is on the "wrong side" of the interstate, it can be a totally different market.

@Edward Suess-Hassman you won't be able to cashflow if you buy Class A or B property - unless it is a:1) Desperate seller and you get well below market price2) A major fixer-upper that you can invest your sweat-equity inYour other options are:1) Invest in Class C - but only do if you undertand 20-25% chance of tenant nonperformance and a lot of maintenance issues.2) You invest in another part of the country.DM us if you have more questions.

There is a lot other consider here and quiet often its not worth it unless you have a large lot or plan to be there for another 10yrs - 15yrs.

While I do think most Realtors (single family listing/buyers agents) are a dime a dozen, in the commercial world I think you get what you pay for, more often than not.

The best will often ask for nothing until they set foot on the jobsite and really start with site set-up and demo. 

@Arn CenedellaHere is something that is not brought up very often when you purchase properties.
