It looks like it could be a diamond in the rough in a good area.

@Nick Leboeuf - What's the story with the Bell Diamond townhomes?  

Hi @Dinesh MelwaniChris Walker with Brennan, Manna & Diamond

Always looking for the diamond in the rough.

It's another thing to find a 5 karat diamond ring.  

We aren't tiling directly onto drywall either, we use the diamond back tile board for the walls, and we have a layer of roll on red seal on top of that to provide added water resistance.Fortunately I arrived in time to see the tile being applied on the waterproofed walls.

get creative with down payments ( ask if they have something to trade with ,could be anything , boat ; car ;      gold ;diamonds ; plane ; IRA ; anything )2. you will get to raise the price when you do this .3.  

I have a great job selling diamonds and jewelry, so I don't plan to ditch that in favor of full time real estate investing, but I would definitely like to do more real estate on the side than I have been doing. 

I've attended and can recommend Black Diamond REI for Massachusetts and RIREIG for Rhode Island.Good luck, and of course feel free to post any specific questions you come up with along the way, here on BP :)

@Raymond Lewis I can also recommend the Black Diamond REI group as one that is education oriented, doesn't try to sell you things, and great for networking.
