So at this stage, the main unknown factor is: finding Tenant/Buyers who can't get the approvals to conventionally borrow right now?

Didn't realize credit or employment income would be a factorI thought it was elementary as I have good solid properties...no debt other than the regular stuff that comes with prop ownership (Taxes, Insurance, Prop Mgmt).Not sure what to doAny tips would be appreciated

That is where long term experience plays a big factor. I

The biggest factor is definitely the location, in my opinion, East Tampa is mostly C class properties which in recessions typically work better than B and A class neighborhoods.

Neither approach is right or wrong .... just preferences.A third factor is the ease with which the investor can obtain additional funding should "the deal of a lifetime come across his/her desk."  

The current owner has revonvated all 4 units HVAC's, a 3 year old roof, and remodeled some 3 of the 4 units.The location is 2 miles from a main interstate, blocks away from the local mall, restaurants, and several large factory employers.The property appears to be well taken care of.  

You might pay $65 for a polo shirt, but you might buy the same shirt out of the same factory without the logo for $12.00, but what people buy is perception, it plays to their ego, not common sense. 

I saw that Mercedes was planning on moving their factory from New Jersey to Sandy Springs, GA and was wondering if anyone has thoughts on whether or not that may bring a good opportunity for real estate investors.

Hey Craig,On the surface it looks like a good deal, but the X factor is the repairs - though you have a buffer due to it already being fully leased.

Another factor is I don't have proof of income for the past two years but i have no debt at all. and my credit score is in the 700'sFeedback would be greatly appreciated on which route i should take
