Others are lone wolves and want a game of 1, happy to roll up those sleeves and grind away for months renovating a turd of a property into something worth living in, and are stoked at making $100k a year and think $200k is greedy and ridiculous.     

Utilities - all my buildings are metered individually for min. electric - water, we have a monthly standard fee and mostly No Gas  (also the buildings with Gas Service are metered to the tenant)You can also consider upgrading the through the wall untis to a nice new white sleeve and a new unit if necessary  - it will change the look and feel -  complete removal will require as you know substantially more exterior work - again have done this also on a building it came out ok, I improvised and infilled with Hardie board on exterior, insulated, etc and painted exterior (red brick color) - it was less expensive than doing a ton of masonry.As you know you will need to bring some additional services to meet your HVAC need, it may outweigh the return.

That will tell you to move on, or to roll up your sleeves and get excited. 

Could always hire a local handyman to help as well.Stop being afraid to roll up the sleeves and dig in.

I have some things up my sleeve that hopefully will kick off 3rd quarter but maybe a little larger than what you are looking for (100+ units).  

or... move to one of the cities, roll up your sleeves, and start in person.https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/12/topics/1171104-the-m...

At the same time, I'm not afraid of rolling up my sleeves and getting dirty.

Menards makes copper repair sleeves that fit over both ends of the pipe you are repairing.

Recently I have come to the conclusion that if I want to get into the rehab and fix and flip specialties of real estate I am going to have to take charge, switch strategies, roll up my sleeves, and get into it.What I don’t have however, is the experience and knowledge.

Anything else up your sleeve?
