I was able to check an old listing and it showed it as being 2 units instead of 3 and one bedroom/bathroom less than what they are claiming.Tomorrow I plan on having my pretty wife knock on a couple doors, hopefully she can talk to someone living there so we don't get something substantially different.

and many who reposition big multi do the same.. they have to vacate the units they have substantial negative cash flow then it starts to come back but they get big upside value add 

Thanks for your replyWould you be interested in taking a look at the property details for your consideration/review. 

If they do, then you can likely find another tenant for that amount fairly easily, as I would assume the entire town's taxes are up- so if someone really wanted to be in town, that price is the new normal.If your taxes increased that substantially in a C neighborhood, your tenants would way more likely give push back for that type of increase- even though you're not being greedy, you're just imposing the same raise you were given.Often the buyer who had the "well, the numbers are better" mentality is only looking at year 1. 

I want to explore options to at least recover what I invested with them and it’s substantial.

California prices are really unaffordable at the same time the state has consistently had outmigration of native residents for something like a decade and even negative population growth recently whereas Texas has grown substantially. 

Given your firsthand experience with the Alabama market, particularly with septic-specific considerations, your insights would undoubtedly provide a more accurate perspective on the operational and maintenance costs affecting this asset.Even with the available information, there are still substantial assumptions and speculative elements that must be integrated into the current and pro forma financial analyses to provide a meaningful valuation.

Although I’ve been investing in real estate, both directly and indirectly for 45+ years, I still get a “queasy” feeling when an investment does not perform as expected.My “aha” moment occurs when we reach the point when, despite the investment problems, we’re able to still show a good/substantial profit at the end of our holding period.  

In order to create enough equity to refinance out all of the investment OR MORE targeting properties that need substantial rehabs is where BRRRRs bread is buttered.

So, there is no difference in cost to you whether its a small amount of wear and tear or something a bit more substantial.
