I appreciate those tips. does Airbnb have success this distance from the airport?

Great tips @Alexander Felice! 

If occupied, establish a professional relationship with the owner (caution--if listed with another office or agent, be careful not to set on any toes). 

In Seattle over the next two years you have Facebook doubling their Seattle area head count, Microsoft is opening their new bigger campus, Amazon has a couple more office buildings that will be completed and Google is taking over additional office space....along with a bunch of smaller growing companies continuing to expand and bring in high paid talent.I would do anything I could to not sell the Seattle property.

You will want to call the county/state DNR office and check the permits for the lagoon. 

With Hexagon, Ernst & Young, Caterpillar, and others locating their offices in downtown Tucson, it seems likely that demand for central housing will become even greater.

Thank you for the tip on checking with commercial lending departments, I'll definitely check that out. 

He gave me some great tips and took a meeting with me at his office.
