I’ll be keeping this in mind as I move forward with my own investments.Wishing you the best as you figure out a solution, which, from the responses that I'm seeing, are good solutions, but still tedious tasks to undertake.

I think many investor miss the very important concept that real estate prices for risk..

When a Class A apartment can be had for the same price as a Class B/C renovated unit, the B/C operator drops prices, and so on.But, in terms of making an investment decision, I think it is short sighted to rely purely on full market average data.  

If the numbers make sense, the plan is to approach the seller and attempt to get a lower price for this "2-story" building which has vacancies, since that's what the owner is selling.

Rougher semi desert areas of Oregon NV Idaho will bring in lower price points..

Like creating a stock portfolio, you could invest in some high appreciation markets and have some cash flow ones to offset the income.If you are thinking long term, appreciation is the way to go and generally at the higher price points.

It's probably just worth walking away on this one unless you got a really good price.

Purchase price: $271,000 Cash invested: $30,000 Duplex with 1 bed, 1 bath in each unit + 3 car garage in a great neighborhood.

I've seen clients just opt to build an ADU rather than go forward with a full lot split for several reasons. 1.

So people are making almost the same incomes, which property has more room to appreciate going forward?????
