Rucker, AL have the attributes that fit your criteria?

High character tenants.  

If not have you considered a 1031 for the portion of your gain not attributable to the unit you lived in?  

., however; you can add some character in the way of texture and add some warmth in other areas (the floor, a more rustic coffee table, etc.)  

I will say that there is a very high eviction rate in the Woonsocket area, and definitely some rougher characters, so you need to be very careful and thorough when screening your tenants. 

Don't know if anyone else made money with it - I did ;-)he was/ is a character and state of WA took him to the wood shed  .. it also changed how overages are done in many areas..

Or what % of the cost is attributed as profit/loss when an insurance company makes a determination on their pricing model? 

They also almost always complain they want the original character of the neighborhood homes built many decades ago to be maintained in any new construction.

Yes, tech jobs played a role to a degree in San Fran, but NYC not quite sure.I would attribute the massively price appreciation more to international equity and housing markets after the recession.

This historic one may possibly be my favorite one should we land it for its character and location.
