I've been tracking the MLS, also with the help of several Agents for the past month but can't get beyond 15-20%, I'm sure there are more hidden gems, vacant properties and more and willl be needing people like you to help us out! 

My goal is to get into apartment buildings and have enough passive income to replace my current job, to spend more time with my family, and to build vintage vehicles.

Did most research on Zillow, and looked at a few dozen properties before finding this gem-to-be.

Nightlife and Culture: Between the vintage shops, Cuban cigar stores, and nightclubs, it's both trendy and cultural.Potential for Growth: As more young professionals and businesses enter the area, there's potential for real estate appreciation.Seminole Heights:Hipster Heaven: This area is all about vintage vibes.

Makes me wonder why it has set so long because overall it is a very nice looking old vintage property with alot of updates.

Here is a video I put together about "being the MD Doctor with the Home Seller"There are gems in there!

@David Cheung , I'm going to have to quit my job just to sift through all these BS leads to find the real gems!!

When I work with clients or buy for myself I am looking at the vintage (age) of the building and what I know is typically wrong and the risks with that type of building.

Fascinating thread, thank you :) While I prefer to work with the one great agent (or buyers' agent), simply because a single point of contact per area is easier to manage - realistically in 9 areas out of 10 that ends up being impossible - the best deals are like well-hidden gems in the dirt, takes a lot of digging by a lot of people, in the cities at least.Rural areas are an exception - there you'll often find the one dominant agent in perfect synch with their area, and you needn't go further.

Although this market is saturated and very expensive there are gems where value can be added and great cash flow can be had.
