Call 5 ask them what sides of the city they like/dislike and why.

Lastly, the ceiling is popcorn texture and I really dislike that but thats me being picky more than anything serious.I will be living in the condo for 2-3 years and renting the entire unit afterwards.

Must have been a plastic stick inside the tank attached to the flush handle - I dislike those, so as they break I replace them with flush handles from WalMart that have a metal stick attached to the handle.

I really dislike particle board especially the sink base cabinet.One leak and they swell up, crumble and it's irreversible.Tenants always put too much stuff into their sink cabinet.  200 bottles of hand detergent, DW detergent, cleaners, bleach, comet, rolls of kitchen napkins, candles, extra kettles, and 500 supermaket plastic bags filling every air void existing in there meaning any minor leak will not be noticed by them until it's pooling on the floor.

I dislike dealing with idiots.And they range from but are not limited to: tenants, their relatives who don't live there, code enforcement personnel, city bureaucrats, neighborhood nazi groups, people I hire to do work, people I offer to buy property from, attorneys, accountants, real estate agents, slum lords, starry-eyed socialist city commissioners.....

The system is not really set up for the average investor to do well without competent help and then it usually takes money.There are other practices that I dislike as well.

Living in the building teaches you a lot.One of the most valuable lessons while living in the building is that you must do your BEST at Tenant Due Diligence otherwise, you will have a neighbor you dislike!

At best she dislikes it more, at worse she starts to resent it and you.

And if you dislike "being behind others," how do you feel about failure?

Another post for another day...While working at a job that I really disliked, I was able to use my super long commute to crank out RE podcasts left and right.
