This was a brand new concept I had been planning (scheming) for a while and was ready to drop the bomb.

Adding to the problem is that each 1099 has no indication of which unit it belongs to, and the big one does not state anywhere on it that it is for all units combined.What scheme does your property manager follow?

However you need to look at the whole grand scheme of things as how much your mortgage and property taxes can potentially be compared to your rental income

I also very seldon use ceramic on floors unless its all that fits an existing color scheme.

The brand itself, as in the color scheme, is atrocious.

For starters, I'm thinking about the following:Flooring - LVPCounters - quartzCabinets - not sure, I heard MDF is not durable enough, but solid wood seems quite expensive (also what colours would be good?

The only other strategy I could see would be a short sale but I don't really see the benefit of the short sale to the lender as I doubt the foreclosure process costs that much in scheme of things and the trustee would have to sign off on the deal as well in addition to the lender.  

 you might to make sure the 20% down payment stretch scheme is for a building that's ready for occupancy. most of the time, those offers are on buildings that are still being put up. if they are offering it for buildings that are already standing, these probably still have high vacancies. probably due to proximity to work.as for the team, developers usually have an in-house property management office to take care of sales and leasing for the building.started with airbnb but eventually transitioned to longer term contracts as there were too many moving parts to manage semi-remotely. airbnb would probably fare better for properties outside the financial districts imho. ideally your broker would give you an idea of yield for each property you're looking at. good luck and have fun.

, but if you look at the grand scheme of things, I would rather troubleshoot my own problems versus a company I am working for, so I just consider it part of doing business.

I am having them put on each unit at turnover, which spreads out the overhead in terms of time as well as the expense, which is comparatively modest in the scheme of things.
