The best deals I find are usually due to agent negligence of the area and a very poor listing presentation.

I'm both an investor who has done fix and flips and a mortgage lender.

For any value add project, the primary evaluation is based on the numbers.Provided you have trustworthy teammates for the renovation side and a competent agent on the valuation side, you'll perform no matter the location.It seems your weighing factors that relate more towards long-term investing and where your asset will appreciate the most.In respect to emerging markets, you'll want to use characteristics like population growth, employment growth, safety trends and path of progress.

:I had a consultation with Andersons a month ago... his youtube videos are great and a lot of good information... but they have packages... and are VERY VERY expensive... for the same setup as other companies for a lot less.I contacted Royal Legal Solutions as well... packages as well and expensive.I also contacted the Small Business office in Kansas and a couple of local lawyers.So far Mark J K has been the best consultation and fees as very down to earth... but will confirm tomorrow :) 

The place I’m looking at has all employees and a wonderful couple who has owned it for about 30 years.

It's that simple.Doesn't hurt to have real hardwood floors and A/C as well.

and the answer is multi-faceted and a little complicated.

i also help with the set up, hosting and finding cleaners  I make it a one stop shop and the process makes it seamless and a sure thing with making money and keeping costs down.  

The solar developments that I worked with were all in California and a one in Nevada. 

Don’t have the time to do property management right now however as I have a full time W2 (accredited investor) and a family to raise.
