I was thinking of doing rental properties near college towns as I think the income would be steady and minimal risk.What sort of capital is needed to get multifamily properties in B rated areas?

@John ThomasRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.So, when investing in areas they don’t really know, investors should research the different property Class submarkets.

Florida video voyeurism law:810.145 Video voyeurism(1) As used in this section, the term:(c) “Place and time when a person has a reasonable expectation of privacy” means a place and time when a reasonable person would believe that he or she could fully disrobe in privacy, without being concerned that the person’s undressing was being viewed, recorded, or broadcasted by another, including, but not limited to, the interior of a residential dwelling, bathroom, changing room, fitting room, dressing room, or tanning booth.(2) A person commits the offense of video voyeurism if that person:(a) For his or her own amusement, entertainment, sexual arousal, gratification, or profit, or for the purpose of degrading or abusing another person, intentionally uses or installs an imaging device to secretly view, broadcast, or record a person, without that person’s knowledge and consent, who is dressing, undressing, or privately exposing the body, at a place and time when that person has a reasonable expectation of privacy;(b) For the amusement, entertainment, sexual arousal, gratification, or profit of another, or on behalf of another, intentionally permits the use or installation of an imaging device to secretly view, broadcast, or record a person, without that person’s knowledge and consent, who is dressing, undressing, or privately exposing the body, at a place and time when that person has a reasonable expectation of privacy; or(c) For the amusement, entertainment, sexual arousal, gratification, or profit of oneself or another, or on behalf of oneself or another, intentionally uses an imaging device to secretly view, broadcast, or record under or through the clothing being worn by another person, without that person’s knowledge and consent, for the purpose of viewing the body of, or the undergarments worn by, that person.(5) This section does not apply to any:(a) Law enforcement agency conducting surveillance for a law enforcement purpose;(b) Security system when a written notice is conspicuously posted on the premises stating that a video surveillance system has been installed for the purpose of security for the premises;(c) Video surveillance device that is installed in such a manner that the presence of the device is clearly and immediately obvious; It sounds like the OP's situation may not be covered.

If I can get from point A (drawing up plans) to point B (finishing the build and renting the cabin as an STR) I know that this thing will be a cash producing monster with a fantastic ROI.

These are A to B-class pockets that have done well in regards to steady appreciation over the years.

Unit A is about 100 years old and Unit B is almost completely new.Pros:-The duplex is in a very desirable neighborhood with home value appreciation year over year at about 50+%-Rent is also in high demand within this area-Cash flows well even with high interest rates and increasing property taxes-Home is price below average cost per sq ft-The house has been renovated and some parts of it has been remodeledCons:-All issues are with Unit A, the 100 year old unit.

Sure thing, @Sarah B..

If such a sale doesn't happen within the first 1-2 months on the market, my plan B is to sell the place to a Spanish buyer, which will probably be easier but less profitable.

:I suppose it's more useful as a way to check things off the list and gauge how much you could spend or would like to spend.Actually, the main purpose of the spreadsheet is the analysis provided on the left-hand side (columns B and C).  

Whether you target B & C class neighborhoods for immediate cash flow or explore up-and-coming areas for long-term appreciation, the city has something for every investor.
