Most of my contacts were from LinkedIn and various Australian Property Investment Magazines.

This is an older article from Builder magazine which Bloomberg linked to in a story earlier today Building a new house under $200K is getting difficult in most places!

We had a commercial property listed for sale or rent at 809 Main St Hopkins, MN.I showed it to Phillip (Blain) Bundy, he liked it and said that he wanted to purchase it on rent to own option and asked me to reduce rent from $3500/month to $2000 for the first three months, in return, he would remove some old magazines and catalogs that were in the building and some other minor junk.He offered to me, none refundable option fee of 20k, that I accepted.Everything was subject to conducting a due diligence and him providing his tax returns.On the day when we had to execute the contract, he said that he had some issues with his bank ( this is what he said), but he brought me an Iphone 6 which I took from him as a down payment and said that he would bring me a set of stainless steel appliances to one of my houses, because he got new appliances on auction and he could sell them to me at discounted price (30%) which I agreed, since I had to pay 2k for appliances anyway.I trusted him, we signed the lease in front of the notary and I gave him keys.Two weeks later, I still have not received my option fee of 10k or rent, or appliances...One time when he was delivering appliances the fridge tipped over the stove and bent it (this is what Phillip has told me).

Handyman magazine is handy for the beginner and pro, other home improvement publications and sites are full of techniques, but actual skills take practice to master.You can get an idea of material costs at the supplier, their ads usually have common materials.

My units are in B- to C areas, so the apartments don't show like magazine show pieces when occupied. 

Rochester, New York has been consistently named as one of the Top Ten Places to Invest in the US for Cash Flow by the likes of Zillow, Forbes, CNNMoney and Fortune magazines.
