Looks like some Atlanta condo building is fighting its residents over Airbnb ... and this building happens to be a condominium where numerous state legislators own.

{SFRs, MFUs, Townhouses, Apts, High rises}Starting from the client/customer/tenant, gives me insight as to the obvious things NOT to do, eg invest in class A gated communities when the tenant may be a blue collar worker, has a family with kids and needs easy access to shopping, schools and in Calif, access to freeways/hiways.Of course Location and the deal get into the equation, but avoiding 'swamp land and war zones' is fundamental and a pre-requisite to either, at least for me.

The only issue is that some of those places can be like a war zone.

The pros and cons of all approaches have been hashed out here numerous times and I'm guessing there are even some blog posts on the topic.

More expensive properties eliminate people that don't have access to funding/FHA buyers, so the competition is likely less numerous, though likely more sophisticated in general. 

@Tony GunterAround here there are numerous post-war houses which were built with no eave over the gable end - I suppose saving 12" of material for each gable added up when they were building 100 - 200 houses in a neighbourhood ;-)Depending on how much of an eave you wish to have there are two ways you can achieve it:The "correct" way:  You need to build a ladder which is cantilevered off of the end truss in your gable.

As in, I've read numerous blogs, attended meetings, attempted to dig up back taxed land parcels to flip, etc etc.

4) A bunch of these are major firms with numerous offerings I have seen.

You are at war!

I'm sure investors there will argue but it seems like there is so much new building combined with war zones/ crime and an industry reliant on good overall National economy.
