Fair enough, I have partial ownership of a commercial (apartment) building in the Bay Area and I would estimate it as a Class A- to maybe Class B - great location, great tenants, nice amenities (not high end like gym, new pool, community room with big screen TVs, etc), high rents, but building is older (built in 1950s).One investor I saw post that they look at where Starbucks and Costcos are opening and possibly factor that into looking at different markets.

You are best off to raise the rent and give the tenant the option to stay.Also, I hear a lot on here that "rents should be", "the potential rents are"... make sure that you do your due diligence when calculating potential rents because most new owner OVER estimate them.

Estimated about $25,000 including utility hookups.  

Amortize your major repairs (roof, hvac, built in appliances) and add an estimate for small maintenance.This feels not terrible to me.

you just have to estimate them based on what the property needs.so if it needs a new furnace + a bathroom gut and remodel + new windows, you estimate that.  

Research comps in the Milwaukee area or connect with a local appraiser to estimate your property’s potential value.Depending on the rental income, you might explore DSCR loans for your refinance, as they rely on property performance more than personal income.

What do you estimate rent at? 

Also if anyone can explain how much I should have saved to get started and a rough estimate of how many single families I should have before moving on to small apartment complexes etc.If you have read this far I greatly appreciate it, thank you so much!

Don't get me wrong I'm happy to help get you some estimates if that's useful hahah but still not something I'd recommend. 

Managing it has been exhausting, especially with the tenant issues and LA’s landlord policies.Here are some details about the property:Purchased for $650k, with about $90k spent on renovations.Current Redfin estimate: $1.1M.Mortgage interest rate: 3%.Would selling it “as-is” during the eviction process make sense financially?
