"IF" you can use an adhesive remover as messy as it is may benifit the overall project and have easier sanding,,,and more consistant sanding. 

I also have some bricks that were removed in small, consistent sections around the building that need to be re-added to the exterior. 

I have wholesalers here in Denver that tend to send over overpriced garbage consistently.

I think in big destination areas where week long rentals are the norm the larger homes have a better chance because most of those bookings are made several months in advance.I have a friend involved with property management in the Outer Banks in your neck of the woods, and am blown away that 10-15 bedroom beach front properties book up for the summer consistently.

I have realized that the more doors you have, the more consistent the cash flow is.

I am interested in a property that currently has two separate buildings on it; one building consists of two 1bd/1ba apartments (Residential Building), the other building consists of two retail stores on the ground level and one 3bd/1ba apartment on top (Mixed Building).  

Also check if the rent escalations are 3% annually, per CPI, flat, etc.Whatever the case it's imperative you thoroughly analyze each lease during due diligence and obtain signed estoppels for each tenant that are consistent with seller's conveyed info.

A wholesaler who is consistent, well connected and able to run accurate calculations is invaluable.Though, wholesaling should only be portion of your strategy, if you choose to do it. 

Play hardball and consistently enforce the rules of your lease, which needs to include something like this:B.

I am looking at a property that consist of two buildings joined by a courtyard, that are in an area that is zoned commercial/residential.
