I live about 5 miles east bordering Balboa Park.

Lemus Hi Michael, the ring cities in Metro Detroit (ones touching Detroit border but are in suburbs) will be a great start for you. 

You dont need a CPA or a lawyer...basically ever unless you cross over 100 units.

I cross my fingers that your next tenant is better than the last one!

Here's one we built on the border of Lyndale/Kingfield and have another that is shovel ready for Spring.

The seller was out-of-country, and was tired of dealing with managing it from across the border.

Obviously, the most accurate way is to contact brokers in that area, but since I am an LP i dont have broker connections and it is mainly used so I can cross check sponsor assumptions in a pitch deck just to asses ball park.Thanks in Advance,Duke

Im a realtor and listing a side by side duplex coming up in a nice area of Albany on menands border this week.

If they have no debt on it (obviously no idea their holding period or history), they may do that and feel comfortable with you as an operator/borrower based on knowing how you run your 32 unit.If you have enough equity in your larger building, your lender may allow you to borrow a second mortgage against that and/or cross-collateralize them - it's a better possibility since they are geographically close together and might be seen as a "bolt on" acquisition.

@Hersh Shah @Brandon Owens looking forward to staying in touch and crossing paths in the future.
