Issues with surveying-setbacks, easements, water and sewer mains and alignment, elevation and drainage come into play and are usually not considerations in rehabs or additions.

Downside if there is no elevator is the stairs.

we got into contract recently on a 14 unit property and go to find out its in a flood zone area (elevation cert. 22 feet). we finally received the ins. cost and flood cost on the property which came in at around  $ 19,500.00- double my estimate, so my bottom line got hurt by another 10K.

The freeway is elevated here and the property has poor visibility, signage and access.

Have your ducks in a row so that you clearly have a 2 minute elevator speech that says what you are looking for, why they should want to lend to you (great credit, excellent job, etc).

Do you respond more to/prefer one-on-one marketing and "elevator pitches" or by receiving professionally prepared, informative materials?

Your elevator pitch (but without being a "pitch") What ARE you looking for exactly.

Although the climate is colder, with the elevation you can see warm days in the middle of winter.

A- locations in Charlotte, NC, you will be hard pressed to find great cash flow in our current market because prices are elevated.
