Even if the smoker doesn't smoke in the unit, they bring their smokey clothing and smokey bodies (hair too) into the unit and the smell gets on the carpet and onto the furniture and into the closets.  

Married 12 years with a 5 month old beautiful daughter, I have recently decided to leave my 9-5 career in IT to pursue 2 of my lifelong dreams.  

I'm not saying be a slum-lord,I am saying that if you concentrated on the stuff that counts you should be able to sell your prospects on the idea that of they wanted a freshly painted beautiful looking unit, it's going to cost $1200 a month!

The beauty of an income property is that you can analyze the deal before you set a meeting to see the property.

Thank you.I would very much so like to purchase this property for my primary residence and it's a shame such a once beautiful house has been sitting vacantly since 2011.

I've just recently started looking at property over in that area.See attached for a crude Google Map of the Westside Trail of the Atlanta Beltline: https://goo.gl/NJO1C8  I have a friend that lives in Westview and there are some beautiful homes over there.

It'll be beautiful!!

Beautiful city!

There is also some poor advice above, sorry, but it is, I think the guru left the forums, but the DF act isn't that simple and if you don't have a finance background I seriously doubt you'll interpret it correctly, real estate attorneys are pulling their hair out trying to figure it out. 

Beautiful sound views in some neighborhoods.
