If I wanted to speak with a professional on this topic would this be a CPA question, Finance/Investment Firm question, or .... ???

As a firm we have had success doing this on the latest acquisitions.

I am also relatively new, I got a job as an acquisitions agent at an investment firm.

They're a great firm in NE AR.

I went to school at USC (human bio major) and now that I’m about to get my license I’m wondering which is the best way to go when it comes to the bigger vs. smaller brokerage firms, and which firms you think are the best to work for in order to gain experience and build a good foundation in LA.

I work for a small consulting firm in SF doing financial due diligence for mergers and acquisitions mainly related to private equity deals.

Find a contractor who can give you a ball park number (before you sign anything on the business, you want a firm estimate) on what you want to spend on upgrades.

I think you work with the same firm David Green works at.

We hire it out.As you know developers hire Architects to design and facilitate construction admin, GC's to handle the vertical and CM firms, owners rep or consultants if needed to oversee the project part time.

I think you need to start being firm with the tenant and tell him what the expectations are for your new ownership.
