Most people think it has retro-vintage coolness. 6.

Seriously, where did you get the vacant building pics in Baltimore... looks like a gem for a value add project.

This is a house that is vintage 1985 with a single old man living in it.

You could get and idea of how much it could rent for on Rentometer.com or an app like Zillow or Trulia what other people are listing their houses at.Sorry, I probably should have given details.It is a 1200 sq foot single family situated near the newish Wegmans on Mt Read Blvd (close to Vintage Ln). 2 bedrooms, 1 bath.

Be patient, have your money ready to make an offer when the hidden gem comes on the surface and you have your reserves and game plan ready then you strike.

I manage projects, I find sites, I solve problems, I negotiate with huge companies, and once in a while I get a raw land gem under my feet for 'real' development. it's not the dream, per se, but I'm absolutely scratching the itch.     

Eventually perhaps I'll see the hidden gems.

Also, there is an RV park near where I live that placed vintage trailers onsite that you can rent by the night. 

Instead of saying, "I want apartments" you need to decide geography, asset type, vintage, sponsor track record, etc.

Not sure what 12" miter you used that was underpowered, my 91 vintage Dewalt has cut 3" dia aluminum bar for me no problem.My belt is a 3x21 H-F that seems unkillable. it's an example of that H-F YMMV.
