Apparently sold off the company and let his investors hang dry.   

Typically I have my painter come in a "touch up walls" like 300 bucks max.

Replaced carpet, textured walls and painted.

Spackle and paint numerous times, fill holes in the wall, have had to wake up early to move my car due to the parking situation, etc. - Have had to sit down all five tenants and reset expectations in terms of cleaning (including the 68 year old co-worker).3.

I can't do central AC with no furnace, and wall mounted mini splits will look terrible.

A couple of years ago, my buddy Mike over in Weatherford ran into the same brick wall.

If you build (via managing a general contractor), you should (ideally) know more about how the property was built than if you bought an existing home--you know what's behind the walls, and ideally you might avoid anything wrong with buying an existing home with issues you and your inspector didn't catch.I understand there's risk to building--it just seems right now that the risk is lower than buying an existing house--a house where you simply cannot know every detail without tearing it down to the studs and doing a complete remodel.

Hang on & buckle up.. those who are not investing in Memphis right now are about to miss out! 

Mirror , mirror on the wall .......

The 3 ft  chalk markers were still visible  on the walls and one of the prospective buyers asked what the chalk marks signified.
