What’s the age of the properties?

"In the state of New York, anti-discrimination laws cover most types of housing, with four main exceptions:one- or two-family owner-occupied buildings. room rentals in housing for individuals of the same sex, such as college dormitories or boarding houses where all residents are of the same sex."

I’m very content and happy where I’m at right now but would eventually like to move back to that neighborhood as both my aging parents live there.

Our goal is to acquire 5 properties by age 35, and we want as many of them as possible to be in Denver.

Those type of buyers are trying to beat the bank for yield they can get there.I typically ask what a potential clients goals are with their current income from a job or business, age, family info, how much passive income they want to eventually achieve annually, current net worth, and liquidity levels.

The average age of the number 1 single family home owner is greater than 2010 and less than 15 years old and they are now building homes new construction and owning them. the exact opposite of your strategy. older homes are the cheaper ones and unless you have experience I'd build in columbus close to downtown. same reason Toledo and Cleveland don't move the needle and there aren't 100 institutions in those markets. columbus is barely on the radar. 

If I were 30 years younger (your age) I would look to experienced intelligent investors to help guide me.

@Pietro GaglioUse this database to help find average cost of care in your particular zip code.https://www.genworth.com/aging-and-you/finances/cost-of-care...If you're in Clinton Township it's roughly $4200, however keep in mind that this is just average.

The previous owners invested over $12M into building it between 2009-2012 but then left it vacant for years, allowing it to naturally age.
