Thanks for the posts and graphic!

Btw, I am a graphic designer if there anyway I can help you please do not hesitate to contact me.

Additionally, based on the info graphic, it appears you would be buying in somewhere near the top of a real estate cycle. 

I'm more than willing to undertake these as well as some other expensive repairs but as I'm estimating them to be in the $50,000 plus range I doubt the sellers will be willing to come down to our price considering all the offers they received. 

How many projects is your company currently undertaking?

It can be a big undertaking, although there can be profit in it IF the numbers are right and IF you have done your homework to know what you are getting into (both big “IFs”).

I have an 18-unit in Cleveland.Pretty much stabilizing for this first year, getting rid of inherited deadbeat tenants etcI have gone to Cleveland twice since acquiring the asset in September 2017:once during initial due diligence and I just came back from walking all units again with my PM last week.Wouldn't have it another way.Much less involved in it compared to my local Jacksonville buildings as my PM as been awesome in communicating.Oh by the way,I read this recent article on BP condemning Cleveland and Memphis to the bottom of some list of "6 cities"...I have no idea why people make these sweeping generalizations based on some graphic or data.It's like a girl saying to herself:"most men cheats I'll never fall in love".It's easy to write an article or create a spreadsheet while drinking beer in your man cave.I just returned from a week of walking the streets of Cleveland taking in the billions of $ in new investment in the downtown area and east of the Flats where an unbelievable transformation has happened since I last lived there in 2011.Vacancies are down, rents are rising.Yet some guy who's never actually been to Cleveland sits somewhere in LA and writes articles about how net immigration in Cleveland is negative etc.Hilarious.

There are so many other questions you need to ask before undertaking this and I would be more than willing to offer any assistance I am able to.

We used a consistent color scheme throughout (earthy green hues from Magnolia home), and printed old graphics of the Green Valley Lake area to put on the wall for travelers to get inspiration from.
