But I have a feeling that i wont have much luck finding anyone since the complex itself is having a hard time staying above 80% occupancy.

In my experience, most of the time when people ask me if I am the owner/landlord/property manager, they usually have pretty bad financial situation, and often time they were already rejected by the large complexes, so now they are taking their chances with the" operator owners" , and they are hoping/praying that they will not get another rejection for their application fees. 

In the large apartment complex where I live, an optional reserve parking space costs $20 per month.

this article seems to summarize the issue.... its weird that rentals outside the downtown area are charging similar rent without the convenience or updates these new complexes are offering.  

This is for Tempe (shows the complexity of this issue): d) Occupancy load; sleeping room.

Hi Raymond , my thoughts is a lot of the multi family built now are condos or apartment complexes usually not for sale , anything else I seen are renovations.

Why not use the VA loan on a small complex you otherwise might not be able to afford and would have multiple revenue streams vs. just one SFH?

Someone may have the means to purchase a 10 unit complex that cash flows 100+ right out the gate.

Since less people are into owning their own homes, developers have been building these huge complexes with just enough perks to push for rents that most locals won't pay... unless they are either older and do not want the house maintenance costs anymore, or if they are younger buy from the city where moving further out seems like a better rent.Side note: I've dubbed Long Island as the land of illegal apartments.

Update on me, I now have 8 apartment complexes and 122 front doors in NE Ohio.
