If you have a significant turnover rate, then I guess I could see the appeal of remote showings, but I also suspect the lack of personal touch contributes to turnover. 

Also, make sure you account for broker commissions if you choose to use one to lease your building.Best bit of advice I have, get in touch with a local commercial broker who specializes in that asset class if you haven't already. 

I also have a lender that specializes in financing BRRRRs and I can get you in touch with him. 

Upgraded kitchens, bathrooms, and other items that hadn't been touched for years What was the outcome?

Hi Chad,Could you put the colleague into touch with me please?

A good rule when inheriting a large sum of money is don't touch it for one year. 

If it's a great deal, I would get in touch with an attorney now and have them assist so you lock it up correctly.Why don't they want to sell until Feb? 

If you aren't a licensed contractor, plumber, or electrician, you should not be touching those things, much less doing repairs or upgrades on those items.

I would not even think to throw money at them.Like what James said and what I just read,  big large fund would not touch multifamily until the spread between treasury and yield cap settles.Also, come on smarter folks, who in the right mind would buy MF property with 4% cap rate, I will buy one for SF Airbnb, but not for MF, because that's dumb and extremely risky even without interest rate hike.

You are touching them and providing some type of education and value to them to bolster your own status, so when you ask for money they are more likely to say yes.And, back to investors or deal first, no broker will ever award you a deal without a reasonable surety that you have the capital lined up.
