A ton of new manufacturing facilities are coming soon as well, along with hundreds of new jobs and new employees.

Here's an old thread with hundreds of responses and many good ideas:  https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/52/topics/68041-how-do-you-harden-your-rentals

Call a Realtor & offer them a few hundred to do a market analysis on each of your properties.

I can tell you I've seen hundreds of cash flowing deals in the last year almost all of them being out of state investors, so there must be something good here ha! 

I've seen hundreds of out of state investors come here in just the past year.

I'm in this business for over 20 years, and I have worked with hundreds of partnerships.

Penny wise and pound foolish to be afraid of a couple hundred dollar fee on a 30k job.

It cost hundreds in fees (multiple properties) and had we paid the bills we would have risked overpaying by thousands which would have put a strain on the cash flow since the overpayment would have been held by the government and applied to future bills six months from now.

Perhaps they don't care and you can make everything right by spending a couple hundred for a lawyer to draw up paperwork between you and the neighbor. 

In this business, it's a game of numbers, so if one auction doesn't work out, so what, I go to the next one.I gone to court house step auctions, on site auctions, public auctions at a hall where hundreds are sold.
