Phoenix and the surrounding cities have a higher turnover rate than most of the country.

I did two tours of the city, there's only one major downtown area but soliciting some help from local Property Managers would be able to help you to learn the streets and the general areas of where to invest in.

I am based out of Mississippi and I received a call about a property in Texas City.

Plans are submitted to city, will start on "in-place" type reno next week for existing bath.Goal would be to find a buyer early so that we can either sell as soon as it is complete, or even sell it now - bonus for buyer would be they can customize a bit if desired (e.g. here are your two choices we include in this price range. or pay more to get whatever custom version you want). 

That doesn't mean I don't look at every MF in about 10 cities I know a bit about just in the interest of learning. 

Not sure what city in CA you live in, but if you need referrals for attorneys or accountants, let me know.

Newbie from New York city, excited to experience all there is in real estate.

Also have a conversation with the main city building inspector about any possible problem or if they are aware of any problems at that address. 

Another building in the neighborhood (same style & plan) is listed for $300,000.The neighborhood is near a new stadium (Atlanta Braves), several employers and shopping/restaurants, but is just outside the city proper.Thank you so much for all your advice/help!

I am located in Connecticut were the two big cities are New Haven and Hartford.
