It's a trade-off only you can evaluate (though I certainly know which way I would lean).2.

But still the MLS data is the most convenient and most detailed data Ive ever seen.

ethnic oriented, due to its very nature (and we have tons of that here in So Cal)3. 7-Eleven anchored (single tenant), as I don't see the convenience store going away.

I am leaning towards such investments to free up some of my time for other things.

I would lean toward an option to purchase.

Master policies also allow for added conveniences like monthly billing, easy movement of properties from rehab to vacant or rental, and claims management.If you keep your properties on an individual policy then the answer to your question is really up to you.

That is, the buyer would counter that he/she will be hit with the assessment soon after the purchase and thus will want an offsetting "discount" now.From the info that you have listed, I lean towards agreeing with the other answers --- sell.

every walmart has a bank inside as far as i know..here it's Wood Forest bank....and there's a walmart near jsut about every low income area where you'll have tenants..i have my tenants put the money right in the account as others have suggested...it's better than using a certain bank where they'll complain about having to go to the bank of america or wahtever bank...everyone goes to walmart so it keeps it convenient for them....i've also heard you can tenants can drop money in a UPS suite box (similar to a PO box), but i havent' tried it

There was some goofy looking dude leaning up against a car and looked like some Vanilla Ice wanna be (decked out all in baby blue sweats with some ridiculous looking beret.)

I think the lock box would make it more convenient to show the property instead of bothering the neighbor every time you want to show the property.
