But it could also be a coffee shop or an etsy store and the cash flow goes into real estate.

Every coffee shop and restaurant has outstanding service.

I personally dropped the zip code into Zillow and looked at your listing on a map and others nearby.

This may depend on your market, of course, but in general, if all of the nearby MTRs have it, you are going to want it for your units, as well.

Maybe sit down with a good cup of coffee when you can really focus on it.Good Luck!

Don’t know how or where tenant washed clothes for 2 months; a laundry is nearby.

It is a $3.99 for the tenant to use, but they take their rent money to a nearby 7-eleven, Dollar Store or Ace and present a barcode/number that you'd send to them.

I would sit down with a cup of coffee and whip up an XLS to get a sense for the implications of the scenarios you are considering.It is possible to do a 1031 and line up a new investment first.

Class C transitioning to Class B: more renovated homes, higher income tenants and homeowners moving in, nice cafes, shops, restaurants, coffee shops opening up.An extreme example of Class C to B is in San Francisco - when I was a kid, what was not a safe neighborhood and had lower income people, is now in high demand and tech workers making $200,000+ are living there and people walking around at night going to restaurants and shop. 

Hey Tyler - thanks for meeting up for coffee, looking forward to partnering on some properties soon!
