Your time is your education/learning curve that everyone, in every business, has to endure.

They are a large stable enduring player in the field.

Rather then sell and move into cash by selling outright and enduring the tax hit to wait for a market correction and good buying opportunity, they will buy fractional passive investments that qualify for 1031 so they can continue to reap tax deferred status, and garner depreciation etc.  

Property meets (yes you do have to endure a sales pitch) are a great place to chat with others with varying degrees of experience and success and find out what others are / have done.

Basically, my wife and I endured a failed JV.  

Almost always, their behavior never gets better after the the application process; this is when they are presumably showing you their best.Using this system has dramatically reduced any wasted time I used to endure as part of the showing process as well as giving me empirical data about their timeliness/responsiveness/respect for others' time.Good luck!

But you're right, not sure I would want to endure the weather there year round. 

And there is no lighting then either, so parking late at night, or going there early in the morning, could be more of an adventure than one wants to endure.

Same thing goes for people who are extremely lazy by nature, and are not willing to endure any effort or sacrifice to maximize their product's potential.Conversely, big ego people, ones that think they, and everything they touch, is gold, often set rates far higher than they can reasonably get - and then raise hell about the tenant pool, other landlords, tax cuts, and everything else under the sun when the unit sits there vacant, forever.
