@Karthik RamachandranIf you are just starting out, then there are several ways  to pick a location:1) your own backyard - sounds like it is out of the question for you2) where you have friends and/or family and plan to visit3) where you'd want to frequently visit4) where you'd potentially want to retireThis can give you a head start of some geo areas and then you can narrow your search down based on the additional research of each location

The way they handle things do hold some expenses down which is why I picked them.

Hey guys looking at picking up another duplex up in Sheboygan this is an older place but has been mostly updated.

Don't pick something up in a neighborhood you are unfamiliar or uncomfortable with.

When you work in any industry you pick up habits and tricks that make the work or product better. 

@Carey Madigan excuse me while I pick my jaw off of the floor...Sounds like a GREAT deal.

Any help is greatly appreciated.My primary interest is in multifamily however with the competition for multi being high and the pickings slim, I am also very interested in single-family homes in C+ or better neighborhoods that cash flow well.Dave

I'm not sure if you have any time, but I would love to connect with you just to pick your brain as to what we may be missing!

Pick a neighborhood or area, and drive / walk EVERY street.

For example, if you need to renovate the kitchen, you simply pick the style of kitchen you wanted, input the sq ft data, and the tool would then create an estimate,  a scope of work to present to the contractors, and an order list which you can import into homedopt/lowes to order the materials.I have been a PM for a GC for close to 7 years, so I understand estimator tools.
