Hey Erina,I was in your shoes a couple years ago, except you have much more in liquid assets than I did at the time.

so yeah, regardless of how nice/good you are to people, people are people and will turn on you in a heartbeat.If I were in your shoes, I'd  either have the PM hire an attorney, or hire an attorney ASAP.    

I am following in your shoes.

My comment is that gravel may be a cheaper option, but gravel tracks and it will get on shoes etc and will track into the house and get all over the floors.....   

You can easily determine neighborhoods by the tyical price point and for you as an OOS investor it does not matter so much whoch side of town you are on.People tend to have rose colored glasses when it comes to neighborhoods.

It's in the auto repair business, where I had no experience, but the owner I'm buying it from had no prior background in it either, he was Russian immigrant who started here as a taxi driver, saved up enough to open up 3 shoe stores, but sold it all when his wife was seriously injured in a robbery.One word of advice.

If I were in your shoes, I would try to house hack with a duplex or a larger home that had at lease three bedrooms to rent those out to roommates or AirBNB.
