They also say that by sanding and refinishing I will void the manufacturers warranty.The floors look terrible and I don't want to void the warranty, I also don't want to be unfair to my tenant either and make them replace the floors all together.

Generally I dont like investing in an environment like that but if it stays flat to slightly down and cashflows  i can still depreciate so its not terrible.2) oil pricing might impact investors and could create some situations where investors need to free up cash and basically have to sell properties even if its cash flow positive to raise cash.  

The only thing is that too many guys try it thinking it easy and do a terrible job.I might have a good option for you in Lyndurst.

Hey Dan, I don't think uptown is terrible.

@Andriy Boychuk  Make sure the seller financing or great terms are not masking a terrible park .  

Because they have a terrible relationship and are intentionally incurring debt for the other, I don't think keeping the property in their names and leasing it from them is prudent.

As you might know the property market is booming and hence and cash flow on rental properties is terrible (4%-5% gross cap rates). 

I would be an occupant in the property and manage it as well, unless that was a terrible idea?

I'll be running now if I get one more telling me it's a terrible idea.

Here are some of the things I have used it for:Scraping military listings from USAA & Military By Owner.Scraping properties from a turnkey provider to get notified when new ones were added in a specific zip code.Scraping Padmapper for rental listings, and then reaching out the owners.Scraping state / county auction sites.That last one is particularly interesting to me, those sites are usually terrible, old-fashioned, government run sites.
