It's called gentrification and it's a very positive thing.You can get in place housing like this in some areas for $30,000, and improve them to your hearts content, and it will always be 1000% better in every way than living in a Maersk Shipping Container (painted with lead paint).But giving up on life and the American Dream and living in substandard housing leads to no improvement.

This property is in the heart of Buckhead, Atlanta Georgia.

Fair enough, but I didn't have the heart to tell him that while it took him 2 months to flip that property (the only one he was working on at that time) I had also made 10k, 7k, and 9k on other deals.

Only Reason to ever do that is because of my parents and my wife have strong sentimental Feelings and emotions in that house which I was unable to get rid of even after getting them 10x better house then that but as they say heart is where the home is, and I would absolutely feel proud of myself by give my parents and my wife that house back some how, that would be my biggest accomplishment. 

The .3 acre lot is located very close to the heart of Rockville and is commercially zoned. 

I really think they notice a great improvement in service from the previous owner who just did not have his heart in landlording anymore.

They have always paid late..after the 15th sometimes and since i am soft at heart i have let it slide for several years now.  

Property #1 was located in the heart of Sokcho's retail district on Rodeo Drive (same name as the one in Los Angeles).

. :)Don't take the criticism too much to heart.

So that is really the extent of my knowledge other that what I read on here and what I google, I have a 6 figure income a strong Business sense and above average intelligence and am a salesman at heart, I have around 30 k of my own money that I would like to keep right where its at and some other money in 401ks and such but lets just pretend those dont exist.
