SIMILAR means unit configuration, # of units, bed/bath count, relative unit size, garage/s, etc.

Some of the streets are less desirable because of the slope of the road/sidewalk and all the locals know you can't walk or drive on that street in the winter....something you don't know as a out of town investor.  

We do complete kitchen and bath renovations and re-designs often down to the studs which far exceeds a typical turnover renovation where you'd maybe do minor repairs, paint and lay floor.I think I could probably manage 200+ units using Buildium property management software (or some other full featured app) without breaking a sweat.

The master bedroom, complete with its own bath, is available for $850, while Bedroom 2, with a detached private bathroom, is priced at $800.

This is how Wall Street brainwashes us to constantly throw money into a 401k instead of investing in income producing real assets.

And while I was able to increase rents substantially, the making the garage a garage again, also involved a full gut remodel of the rest of the house, so the design and newness certainly played a big roll on the rent increase.Second case study, my wife and I recently bought a flip.  1960's built, four bed 2.5 bath house.  

LA Superior Court made a ruling 9/6/16 that my sister cannot evict me - since Judge Barry made the ruling my sister has promised that I will still be getting evicted - and that she hopes I end up homeless living in the streets. 

We have a small 3 bd 1 bath home that is  in the path of progress.

It is a 3 bed 1 bath located in Dallas, Wi. 2900 square feet, built in 1920, 1 car garage, and a beat down shed in back.The house definitely needs some love to up the value of home, but I have the knowledge to do 90% of the work myself for this flip. 

After years of using a property management company, I'm looking to self manage two 4 bedroom/2 bath student housing condos I own in a college town.
