Don't feel pressured to move to a huge city in order to be successful.

The silver lining to that is that, because rents increases have been suppressed for a while, there should be some upward pressure on them to snap back up after home prices start to rise again, which is effectively happening now because rates finally went down.

Odds are the drain line, condensate pump, putting down new riser blocks or mounting blocks, the whips and line sets, new disconnect box, new low and high voltage wiring aren't in your Google pricing.

I hope you will try to get your money back and am happy to give you some strategies to put pressure on them if you are actually prepared to get aggressive to try and recover your funds.Sorry again you went through this.I am in a similar situation to Frank, just with another investment with the GP, it would be great to have a quick chat and get your perspectives. 

I would put pressure on them.

Quote from @Blake Cogdill: In our area of Mount Pleasant, SC, people continue to move here paying higher prices than the locals.

For example, could this potentially be a cash boom opportunity within the adjacent areas such as Kenosha and Mount Pleasant where one could buy low, sell high within a relatively short amount of time through appreciation, or would the presence of Microsoft increase cash flow in those areas?

Ideally, closer to the main strip such as some restaurants on Commonwealth or especially on Mount Vernon.We are doing the mid-term rental route on Airbnb.

Additionally, you may find that the pressure of the hard money loan will cause you to go faster and make poor decisions, or life could happen, and you could be delayed in completing the rehab.  

This will make it harder to afford, harder to get lending, and ultimately limit the buyer pool which puts negative pressure on prices.
