I paint runways on an airport and provide Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) at an airport now. 

It has some nice office space, loading docks, etc 10 minutes from Downtown Ft Worth and 20 minutes from DFW Airport.

However, my California RE mind sees the prices vs rents and am bewildered by such statements.As of now, these are my desires in properties:a house or townhome built after 2000 - I prefer after 2003 turnkey condition MOST PREFERABLE, but not necessarily a requirement at least a 3+2 neighborhood well kept and not too much crime $50-$100K, short sales are acceptable Close to transportation and/or the fwy Relatively close to downtown and the airport (10-20 min when there is no traffic)Seeking cashflow, appreciation much lesser priorityFor rent of 800, the PP cannot be exceed 60kFor each additional $100 of rent, the max PP can only increase by about $12.5k.If you see immediate issues with these desires, PM me so that we can talk about it offline.

I'm at the airport right now heading up there.

The Health District in my view is bounded by:I-95 to the EastDolphin Expressway to the SouthNW 14th Ave to the WestNW 20th St to the NorthProperties within these boundaries are limited/rare, so while the above is the 'actual area' I also mean the surrounding neighborhoods and streets.The area doesn't have the best reputation in terms of safety (Though there are definitely rougher areas in the city), but it does seem like it a solid rental market - with plenty of jobs nearby.It is also fairly close (Depending on traffic) to Wynwood, Downtown, and Little Havana/stadium(s) and the airport.  

Being that this is a smaller park near an airport, it may not be the best deal depending on your exit strategy.

I am hoping to find an inexpensive room to rent in a safe neighborhood (I'm used to the Boulder Bubble) but within 10 miles of the Oakland airport ( I'll be commuting by bike most days to the office on Bay Farm Island).  

My friend gets it installed and heads off to the airport (I flew him out from Seattle and paid him hourly since I’m still building my list of reliable contractors).

Additionally, this property is close to the airport so there is a lot of potential to turn it into an airbnb hub, leading to more cashflow and of course, more management/cleaning time.Long story short, would you take a deal with these parameters:- Asking price $165,000 (pre-MLS price) - Duplex consists of: 1 bedroom main floor and basement unit & 1 bedroom upstairs unit- Total rent: $1600/month (tenants pay utilities)Addendum: I just bought my first property with 11% down (before I found BP), so any suggestions (or links to forum posts/blog posts/podcasts) on creative ways to finance this deal, please let me know.Thanks BP community.

Drove up from Detroit with my wife, I was working in Cleveland at the time and pick wife up at DTW airport.
