Looks attractive.

This may have made me miss out on what would otherwise have been good financial investments, but it has also never failed me in having properties that attract decent tenants.

Do not fall for the attractive looking term sheet. 

In today's market, many office landlords would much rather walk away from their properties and take a loss than fight to attract tenants and avoid foreclosure.

Will they still perform under terms that may attract a typical investor?

These updates included modernizing the interior, enhancing curb appeal, and addressing key areas to make the home more attractive to buyers.

Key West and the other keys does pretty well year round, relatively speaking; there's a lot of fishing attraction along the Keys even in the summer.
