During the previous crash of 2006 - 2010, real estate really did experience a bubble.

Typically I try to stick to 2-4 bedroom single families as larger homes do not bring much more in rent but more in repairs.Thanks for sharing your experience.

I'm a construction cost estimator building my real estate network, and want to offer my experience to the BP forums.I've spent 3 years in residential estimating and 5 years in commercial estimating.

From my experience many lenders and especially realtors do not understand the loan.

Look for signs of that because in my experience these people that are not on the lease and not liable for anything don't generally care the property.1. 

Does anyone have experience doing this and can show me how best to go about it? 

What you experience in Milwaukee is pretty typical for a class D neighborhood.

Does anyone have suggestions or experience in this area?

When I searched the BP Forums for "commercial valuation" and "commercial value-add" I saw some information about people finding deals where the seller wanted to sell a commercial property for when it was "Stabilized" - but this seems slightly different than making improvements that go beyond filling vacancies.Obviously I have far less experience than Brandon Turner!
