It’s a bit like playing Monopoly but with real addresses and real money.. and when done right, it can feel like unlocking a secret level in the real estate game.But hey, no point pretending it’s all sunshine and roses.

You may pay 1.5m and up for a good one, likely more if parking and balconies, but the play is to buy a multi and then wait and in a few years, turn them into condos and sell them separately - that's how you make the money there.

Will need to know density, parking requirements, can the building withstand building on top, lot size, future planning etc…. depending on how well the zoning and platting dept plays with others!

(I have children that could no longer play in the backyard unless someone sat and watched them) i replaced the 15yr old garbage disposal out of my pocket so I wouldn't have to deal with the incompetent plummer again.

Going to take some time but I’m hopeful to help make downtown a place in excited to bring my kids to and for them to know their dad played a small part!

Scaling is fun but the more you add the bigger the risk is.

To me it’s a challenging game, an intricate puzzle where if you learn how to play you get great results.
