They are true 6" lumber so they may make me sister them worst case scenario.

Let's say you make mistakes that end up costing you 20% of your property value - both losses are painful, but it will be a lot easier to recover from 1 unit that multiplying it by 20.Also what if you decide the effort is isn't worth the return, unloading the property will be more effort/costly on the bigger property.While you miss out on big upside on a smaller scale, when do you think, you would be more likely to very successful on your very first property or maybe your 3rd or 4th.

It's a bit of a long shot but you just may find that one absentee landlord who has been looking for the right time to unload their rental property.

Even if you double the rent per unit listed it still is not at 1% rule.Yes I look at listing history, he has been trying  to unload these properties and can't get the price he wants.  

Try lumber liqudators for your install they rates are close to most GC prices and the warranty is great.I would not change just because of one client .

Change of property management about a year ago and the new association decided to unload the Marina as it was not considered "Profitable " Since then The golf course has been sold to the Club " PRO" When I had heard the rumors that the Marina might get sold I inquired to the BOD to be notified if that were to happen as I had wanted to make an offer on it if it became available .

When you consider that the banks have REOs but also want to make new loans, unloading their REOs at huge losses and flooding the inventory with low cost housing doesn't help them on the origination/new loan side, either.

At some point, the write off no longer out-weighs the opportunity to sell and they unload the property.  

I would be inclined to unload it.We have family heavily into commercial real estate & that was an issue with one of their buildings so they sold it & just managed it for the new owner.

I just spoke to an investor in my area with about a dozen investment properties he's looking to unload.
