I have talked to a builder and a home of this size (without land purchase) can be put in place with as little as $250.000. 

Property Details- Size: 64,000 SF Class A mixed-use building - Commercial Space: 25,000 SF - Residential Space: 39,000 SF (32 duplex apartments, 2BD/2BA) - Parking: 165 spaces Vacancy and Rental Status35% of the prime commercial space (about 10,000 SF) was vacant and not marketed for rent online. 13 of the 32 duplex apartments were rented at 35% discount to comps What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

If things goes the way I anticipate, Austin will be probably my 3rd largest position in size but primary financial position. 

This can range from a few thousand to several hundred thousand dollars, depending on the complexity and size of the project

I am planning to convert the living room in the property to bedrooms and want to use the garage as common space (have a pool table or a Foosball table, a couch etc).

At the table her lawyer wanted  half of the business , 5 million dollars .

My sample size is small but I have not needed to show the apartment to book it yet.

I usually can pickup Spa Sensations/Zinus 12 in Ultima King size for around $275 every few months when Walmart logrithms mark them down. 

I can then take those figures and estimate for future deals based on size, room and bathroom count, etc. 

What I do for my units with shared meters is I charge 50% flat to each tenant which prevents waste I get no issues with any waste due to this but the ones that share electric bills do get many complaints due to the size of the bill.
