So I set aside 10% for future repairs and cap-ex in one line. 

How long can the real estate market sustain increasing home prices?

Also, in the future .. make sure the floors match, it looks unplanned to have the 2 different colors, not to mention also carpet and tile.. you gotta sell flow, focus on who your buyer is, and what they want!     

Best of luck with your future deals. 

It's seems like a good time to be proactive and head off some future repair costs. 

I agree with you that the part right by Inglewood is good - I have also seen closer to the 110, on the other end of that zip code (i.e. past Normandie towards Vermont), and I think that section can be rougher, but as we know, people are making money everywhere - I'm sure it'll continue to improve in the future.

Also it’s in a development which could lead to future ownership of other units adjacent to the property.
