Thoughtful analysis, @Alan Asriants.

Real estate is NOT a passive investment and requires lots of analysis and education.

I closed for both sides and had a chase them round for final signatures.Also might I add the property could be falling down, you basically have to send your staff out to take pictures and videos to send to them to get them to even budge on any price.These homes they have have been sitting a long long time and most cases they are on the city’s list of zombie homes and ready to be demolished, you won’t find that out with no title search and survey, you find that out the day your workers show up to work ready to get this thing back to livable to be met with more money spending ventures.Bottom line.

SonuI have lived in Final for 6 years.

For our ADU (garage conversion), I am handling the design/engineering and then selecting a final contractor once its permitted and ready to go. 

Not a ton of value-add opportunity, more of a core+ investment in a very small market I'm familiar with - my initial analysis is yielding a 14% IRR & 1.28 EM, so I'm not sure of the attractiveness to investors.

Quote from @Jon Martin: Do an enemy analysis.

The collaboration between Partner Driven and Archie Raglin resulted in a same-day sale, with a final price of $225,000.

Then one of their coaches threatened to back out but the student finally was able to get through to Tyler, they worked it out but now they need even more money for the contract extension.

If you want to think about it as a math problem, it’s all about where you put your time to maximize returns while also factoring in what you enjoy doing.Picking the MarketI’m the kind of person who gets analysis paralysis.
