Keep your fingers crossed that the rush to buy land, any land on dry ground, South of Progress Village and Bloomindale continues because companies like Amazon pay outrageous prices for raw land just South of you in Ruskin to build enormous warehouse busineseshttp://www.tampabay.com/news/business/realestate/a...and that the Port of Manatee will be built out, like planned, to be a big container port for the Panamax ships that will be sailing into Tampa Bay to offload everything from China.

@Matt KautzWith that price I was thinking this was an Silver Lake / Echo Park / Atwater Village property.

Even within a specific neighborhood like Edmonodson Village there are blocks where I would happily own rentals and some where I don't even feel comfortable walking through.Not only do areas vary but investors vary.

@Shawn Rea and @Kathy BensonMy rental property is in the rental townhouse complex called Rose Village.

Obviously the numbers are fictional - but the point being that putting yourself through a reno will cost in the way of time, money, and a softening market.

Forgive me in advance for any typos.Here are the facts I am contract with 10 unit all brick 3 story apt building 5 units are studios and 5 are 1 bedrooms located in one Columbus Ohio most vibrant neighborhoods Victorian Village/Short North area for 599k with 4k closing costs.

They have already had 2 votes to dissolve the village, what is the drop of $800 a year in taxes going to do when it finally passes to home values?

That's why you need a local Realtor on "your team".1) The list price is a fictional thing - it's a made up number from the Realtor.

I know for me, the extra pressure of offering this and making it happen is what will keep me growing faster than I expect.I live near East Atlanta Village, just outside Fulton, but still in DeKalb County.I look forward to hearing from many of you.  

My concern is that since it is a rural village, how likely will it be that I can keep four units fully occupied?
