I live in Yakima WA but I just moved to Seattle WA.

I've currently been showing an buyer investor foreclosures in Washington and I don't know that part of town at all .... my company has me working with a team that has me working primarily with investors who do flips or buy and holds.   

Jim, we should have worked with you on this, we would have let you know WAY in advance that these fees are coming... you can see the Ordinance here:https://www.sanjoseca.gov/DocumentCenter/View/74864School fees for anything over 500 square feet, think its $3.40/sf, in your district

I have my license in OR & WA, a W-2 position, and I help others as I am available.

None of this seems to square for me.$34M purchase7% preferred returnCash and Cash - 8.5% over 5 yearsWhen deal sold, the principal is returned and 70% of proceeds basedEquity multiple 1.94"Over 5 years, you're basically doubling investment."15.9% IRRUsing that -- and some if the info seems contradictory to me -- how do you simplify to, "If I invested $100K here, assuming their numbers are true, I could expect to earn $XXXX each year and $XXXX total after 5 years"?

The states I am working in are Idaho, Washington, Alaska ( Fairbanks) and finally Hawaii ( Big Island maybe Maui)

The A/C on both sides were pre-2000 units, the inside had stick down vinyl square flooring, overall it was clean enough to rent out, just very dated.

I am not sure if this has something to do with the value of the leased space.Anyways does anyone have any comps I could look at to get a price per square foot? 

I joined the Army in early 2013 and am currently stationed in Washington state.

I just bought my first property in Indiana (I live in WA) and I'm totally comfortable with it.
