Tenants ended up demanding concessions or just plain skipped out of their lease and disappeared.Also, unbeknownst to us, the former owner tried poaching all of the month to month tenants to their building across the street.

After he teamed up with a local intermediary in the Bay Area.. from what I read in the Wall Street Journal, Lockton has been helping investors streamline these moves.. he ended up freeing enough capital to invest in a mixed-use building in San Antonio that we’d been eyeing for a while.I’m no attorney or CPA, so I’m not giving legal or tax advice here, but there’s definitely something to be said for repositioning your insurance to fit your broader investment goals.

You just really need to know the street by street details.

There SOW would usually be - 'I want a remodel done on the kitchen and bath, and add a new bedroom on the left side of the house'...Then I would add items that only a GC would know about or notice, like needing new headers for the openings they want, the elec panel being undersized, or the roof being suspect, etc...Together we would then arrive at a comprehensive SOW.Yes, that is much better scenario.

Smith,I was running the property records of vacant lots in Pensacola and saw that you own 123 Main Street. 

The homes I own total to 24 bedrooms, 8 bedrooms per home (1 master and 7 shared bath bedrooms).

There is no given answer here, because the whole property needs to be relatively consistent.Kitchens and baths are the common answer, but if they are passable and you choose to invest in them anyways at the expense of peeling paint (or off putting exterior color) and overgrown landscaping, the appraiser and tenant will be walking up with a bad taste in their mouth, thereby not valuing the interior work you have done.But think about the general flow of someone looking to rent: more bedrooms will typically dictate more rent.  

But, that $50,000 investment will pay back $75,000 (beats wall street).

So I was negotiating with him yesterday and yes this is the one perk in that when I speak to Kiavi, RCN, Roc, Easy Street, I'm never speaking to the guy in charge. 

Trash pickup - bags on the street in MO vs bins in KSRoad conditions and plowing - better roads and more frequent plowing in KS Years of construction - Kansas is mostly 1960s and newer, MO has the older buildings - 1900s and newer.
