My guy charges $36 for ants, reaches, rodents or whatever other pests my tenants have attracted.

With housing and construction costs so high here, these seem like an attractive alternative, if they can actually be shipped in for a sensible cost...and our significant Asian population seems attracted to smaller, more efficient floorplans.

A few hundred dollars to avoid an eviction down the road is well worth it.Craigslist, yard signs and local newspapers attract weirdos.This is just based on my experience and my protege's.

Rogers and so do millions of others who are voting with their wallets.  

I guess my biggest questions are: How can I raise the ARV and how can I best attract a lender that will lend for my retail flips within this community?

The town is one which had lost most of its best and brightest, and which had a hard time attracting investment.

Most of these areas fall under Naperville school dist which makes this neighborhood more attractive for renters and new buyers.feel free to pm me with any question or need any help. 

One of the places I'm exploring is setup as I described above, with each building having a different address number (but still being part of the same lot from what I can see on the county assessor's website).My internal debate right now is whether I should explore this property any further, or set my sights on 4-unit or smaller buildings where financing rates might be more attractive.  

I would think putting 10 houses on 1 acre and building a type of garden style community would be quite attractive and extremely profitable.

The preferred return and waterfall hurdles can slide around, there is no "industry standard" so it is up to you to determine what the pref and splits should be to attract capital.
