So the city will pick up garbage for Multi-family units.

Not all inspectors deal with the city and understand/qualified for DIHLR requirements, make sure to get inspector that does those.

Doesn't cause trouble for the neighbors, with the city or the police. 

@Phil Bach, Hello, The foreign money from China, England, Russia and Brazil that has been buying up all the high end real estate in major cities around the world has been driving those prices sky high as the investors try to protect assets and launder money.

There are a few "loopholes" if you will...1) The association approving the lease could be considered a form a discrimination or "first right of refusal" which in some states/cities is against the law, regardless of what the CC&Rs say for the Association.

Hi Parker,Welcome to the Tampa Investment market (#2 city in the country for investing in real estate actually).

Also, are there any back taxes on the property you would have to pay for, any backed up bills that are due to the city/utility companies?

In both investment adventures, there are pros and cons, but not really knowing where to start, I was hoping to get some advice or find someone local in the area to meet up with and get more information.My husband and I currently own 3 rental properties – a row home in Baltimore City, MD a single-family home in Baltimore County, MD and a condo in Ashburn, VA.

I am currently looking for investors that consider asset based lending to fund real estate deals in my city.

Research the property tax records and find out the address that the city sends it tax due bills to for payment.
