This foreclosure had so many flyers and businesss cards I was in shock, I mean I could see the floor.

Check out the East Boston multis for some serious sticker shock :)

Another thing, Nathan, is that I don't know where you got your information that the rents are lower than market, but in that area, I was shocked the owners got THAT much.

They are shocked and angry when they learn that's not the case, and the rental unit will reflect that when they finally leave.

Based on months of preliminary research, it seems like the sweet spot for me is going to be B/C properties in terms of the building condition overall.

It may be that Trulia, Zillow, Realtor.com are very well designed aggregate sites and agents just don't feel the need to localize it, but it's pretty shocking how little faith is placed in developing a branded web presence.

Some of the names on this list will shock you, including General Electric and Harley Davidson.

I was shocked at all the amenities within something so compact.

None of the documents are available online, and I'm hours away from the area, so I would likely be better off paying a title company for something like a "preliminary title report" / O&E report.. than going down there myself.

The fact that they would give you a fictitious contractor is shocking to say the least.
