Think there is lower hanging fruit for them, at least that is my hope.

Were there the old style gas valves with a nut on one side?

You really need to talk to a tax lien attorney in your area ( maybe take them to lunch ) to learn nuts and bolts and see if your plan is viable based on how it works there.

That doesn't mean there aren't some great deals out there with SFRs - at the right price and location, there are several great investment opportunities with them - but given the choice, side by side, I would rather buy and hold a multiplex - which in my area are actually in high demand now.Some obvious disadvantages are if both tenants stop paying rent, your going to have a big nut to crack - and as others have mentioned - multiplexes usually have the water lines tied to one account / meter and the owner is typically responsible for water payment ( unless negotiated in the contract).

Renting means you have a monthly nut that you have to continue to cover.Now I think renting does have an advantage in a high priced area like SF.

I think it has legs, but I'm going to grab the low hanging fruit while its still ripe.The concept is great if you have the time and money to put into it.

Its like saying all fruits are apples; what about the poor orange, cherry, and grapefruits left out of the equation?

really need some good ideas on this one.....its driving me nuts!!

Take a trip to supply house and you'll easily spend $100 for wire nuts, wire, copper fittings, acetylene, oxygen, a $300 jug of Freon.

I think the DF act will look at all fish but once the large fish is hook and brought to the bank let's fry the large fish and enjoy the fruit of our labor and at that time, the little fish will get the message.
