@Phil Hong If you're just wanting to look at a map then http://graphics.latimes.com/soft-story-apartments-needing-retrofit/ is good because it's visuall mapped out, though i don't know if this is a comprehensive.

A few years ago it was literally the #1 market to invest in, but now the market dynamics have changed a lot and I don't really recommend it any longer.

It really depends on which of the drivers of each segment of rentals is more present with your condo, and which segment has the best blue ocean dynamic present.For example, if you are near a regional hospital and everyone is goo-goo-gah-gah over STRs in the area, mid-term is likely your cash cow. 

It's important to research and understand the rental market dynamics in your area to make an informed decision.In some cases, cosmetic improvements might be a more cost-effective approach.

Anyway, I continued to reflect on this interaction & (in typical entrepreneurial brainstorming response) attempted to identify needs that may arise within this dynamic. 

We got HELOC without visual appraisal ,$0 closing costs .

Depends on how much sheetrock repair and touch up they had to do....not enough detail on what was actually done.You may have been screwed out of a couple of hundred bucks at most.... price doesn't seem too off to me for what I would visualize in my mind as being done.Best you can do is next time get better info on what the actual issue is.....condition of the actual damage...... get pix before, during and after...more detailed invoice.I probably wouldnt sweat this one....but make the plan on how you handle repairs and quotes in the future....

Visual isn't good enough.

But I paid him the entire equity long before closing to shut him up, as he got his money already, and even his lawyer intervened saying "if you give him any more, he'll have to bring money to the closing, and that's a bad idea".All in all, when you do business deals, the situation surrounding it are all different depending on the dynamics.

I will also draw up a blueprint or a 3-D visual for them.
