You're better off focusing on specific markets, specific neighborhoods, analyzing numbers, and building an ideal buy [box].

I'm building some currently (so obviously I think that works). 

.: We just this week bought a 6 unit building in a top notch suburban school system for $615,000 with gross rents of $4615, but to make the deal cashflow (barely), had to raise the gross monthly rents to $6570 on 4/1.

I completely agree that personal interaction can go a long way in building rapport with guests, especially when you're trying to create a memorable experience.

IF it is a real problem, then yes, fix it.I would build a fir-in wall out of 2x2s and insulate it heavily (Rockwool comes to mind https://www.rockwool.com/north-america/) There is also drywall that is made for this.

Quote from @Victor Yang: Hello all,I am looking to buy an apartment building.

With the right strategy, it can become the foundation for building wealth.

And your net worth will thank you.If you still want to go ahead, you'd be better off buying a house than an apartment because, while the value of the building itself will go to 0, you'll still have the value of the land, bearing in mind that the land might actually lose value too given the depopulation and the yen depreciation.Sorry if I'm pooping a party but make sure you understand what you're getting into (which you're already doing by asking the forum) and then make the decision that's right for you according to your objectives.

I also have a building though in a low income suburb and that place is 10x the work and I kind of want to find a manager for it.

Then, start building your connection with local agents, contractors and property managers.2.
