Good morning BP Community, I was wondering if a front garden would affect the curb appeal of a MFH rental.

We have 22 apartments in garden style buildings - two-story - each with individual furnace/AC systems in the basement.

I just took a quick look at the Garden State MLS, Elizabeth indeed seems to be a hot area to invest in. 17 out of the 20 active, multi-familiy homes priced $100,000 have accepted offers on them and are in attorney review.

I recently bought a 14 unit garden apartment value add deal and currently am trying to get the laundry room situation dialed in.

The other places west of Dayton tout other local pluses (garden market, near a state park, seminary) on the property or within walking distance.

Westland /garden city /Redford /wayne area .

I hired a gardener to come in an trim all the trees, install sprinklers, and clean up the backyard (lots of debris from previous owner).

Now this dagger was drilling his brain that he was losing his home, he was never gong to be able to successfully pull out of this and he might as well sell to them at a 20 - 30% loss.All the while, he kept looking at the living room he had remodeled completely with his own hands, the bedrooms, the new infants room, the back deck, the storage units, the front yard rose garden and landscaping all done with his hands, blood,.sweat and tears.

Because of our location and amenities plus the fact that these are ground level garden-style homes across from a rapid transit station we are exploring the idea of converting to full ADA spec handicapped accessible.

I have purchased 10 acres in the Pittsburgh / West Mifflin area and am in the process of pre design for developing 2 story garden style apartments (4 buildings 52 units total) and would like to know if anyone knows the cost of construction in the area for apartment buildings.
