Tons of historical architecture and a charming main street. 

I spoke with a neighbor who has been inside and the place needs a total redo...the windows are all broken out and covered with plexiglass, roof may be leaking and needs replaced, pipes are likely burst...but it's a big place with a lot of old charm...the porcelain kitchen sink is probably worth more than the auction price.

Of course, I'm still on the search for a female investor who serves as a similar role model ... women and POC have a steeper uphill battle with stronger headwinds than devastatingly handsome and charming white males do.  :-/  What about Grants wife?

A beautifully done, charming home with efficiency in back in an historic neighborhood.

It is actually not occupied, and I was able to peek in the windows.http://www.auction.com/Wisconsin/residential-auctiIt is very charming on the inside, and the interior condition looks good.  

Like you mentioned, prices are high here right now for good ROI, and on top of that the market is pretty saturated for rentals at the moment, so it's those unique/renovated/thoughtfully designed properties that offer extra character and charm that keep higher occupancy levels and offer a (somewhat better) ROI.

I hear conflicting stories from different investors every day and although I respect the enthusiasm of my potential clients, I am always brought back to the reality that is Charm City.  

For me, Dallas is just a big city with a lot to do and see but not what I would consider a beautiful/charming city (same problem I have with Atlanta) and I'm not a fan of 100+ degree weather with the humidity (natural disasters are up for debate).

He is a little demeaning, but he has that Matthew McConaughey southern charm so he gets away with it.

The airport is amazing but it just doesn't have a good vibe to me whereas the Seacoast has some really charming areas.
