I bet it won't last any more than 1 month...However, this does explain why I am so bored with REI, as is evident from this other discussion :)So I called @Brandon Turner to complain about being 100% full, and he says:"...yeah - me too; but, I've got 3 notices of people moving out in a couple of weeks..."

Even more of a civil matter, when there is no evidence of breaking and entering (ie they have keys).

When the owner shows me them, and I show them x,y, z, and they say they've poured money into the property...there  should be evidence of this, and there almost never is.Consider not only cap ex, but the amount of time you will pour into getting this building up to decent condition.  

There are a couple of key neighborhoods that are primed to appreciate in value, and the reasons are tangible and evident.

In that case, $1,600 seems like is should be supported by the evidence base.

I dont do enough deals in Baltimore to know what is customary....but in  Montgomery, Frederick and Howard County (As long as their isnt damage), evidence of termites typically has the seller pay to have the property treated.

To elaborate on what @Stephen Renehan said, I'd start at ripropinfo.com and use that to go to the town's tax assessor website to find the owner(s) and their mailing address.I might also use the land evidence link for the same town to look up each owner by name.

I am not qualified to understand the broader implications, but I would say it is evidence that rents have an upper limit and assuming you can buy and increase rents at a 5-7% rate every year is not a valid strategy.   

If those are the type of businesses you want as tenants, and the other buildings are full then that is pretty good evidence that your potential tenants are fine with how the building looks.Next, I would ask people in the industries that you want as tenants what they think about the building. 

No house is perfect and some issues are not evident up front.
