I recently bought a $60 ozonator from Amazon that worked pretty well removing odors from a unit.

Amazon is even moving in 2 distributions centers to the suburbs on the East which will help drive up rents and prices as we are already seeing.

Seriously, he can't figure out he's in a position where a guy who can afford $25 for an adult onesie on Amazon (I checked) and a bag of colored marshmallows at the supermarket is going to cost him significant lost revenue and you (his business associates) slightly less significant lost revenue.

There is big Amazon warehouse south of Hueytown which is driving some of the investment in that area (promise of new jobs).I would suggest you call a few local property managers and get a feel of the area.

You can get it new for $20 at amazon and it is worth hundreds of times that.

The owner is going through a divorce and needs to sell :cool: 1 studio -$ 4502 1bed -$ 5502 2bed -$ 800 and $750_____________________________$3100Tenants pay for all utilities, no major repairs needed.Onsite well for waterAll Taxes -$2500/yrHere's the problem, I was told that all of the P/L documents have been lost due to a flood, which also triggered my red flag.

I have a unit that is a tiny studio, it rents for $300/mo right now.

If you want a cheap source to lean some great information you can check out Larry Goin's book at Amazon or Barnes & Noble called "Real Estate Day Trading" this is a very well written book.The idea is to build a relationship with one of these wholesalers and the best way is by producing results.

You can use landlord studio as a free version to post to other websites and screen tennants as well. 

Specifically, there's job growth (Intel, Honda, Amazon, Nationwide, etc) and the population is growing (unlike Cleveland or Cincy).
