To the OP - I wouldn't avoid Fridley and agree that there seems to be a higher concentration of MF properties in the area. 

Oakland is the neighborhood Pitts is located in, so it is definitely within walking distance, but it is also has a high concentration of college rentals.

Sell th ecar, buy one with cash for a couple of thousand and concentrate on payng off your bad debt.

You did not mention any financial problems but you can put together a Partnership to help you raise the money to get started.You need to block out your daily time to help you concentrate on specific things.

They attempt to convey to the user what the nature of the QRP plan design is, so that consumers understand what they're getting and how to maintain a plan compliantly and not get in trouble with the IRS. 

Can anyone recommend an accountant in Colorado Springs that concentrates/specializes in real estate?

Remember to add a unit above requires design of the structure, footings, foundations, etc.Pm me if you have more specific questions.Good Luck.
