I have done research and continue to research but a fresh voice is always helpful. 

I own a seven unit garden style apartment building and I am looking for an introduction to a reliable handyman in the Greensboro, NC area. 

I think the city gives significant tax breaks to rehabbing old properties, so many people are tearing down to the foundation and building a "fresh" rehab. regardless, zillow has a bunch of lots available in some up and coming areas. 

Don't accrue more. a 200k salary fresh out might not be so accurate.

If the property is basically turnkey with a fresh rehab, you can stay lower.

I also noticed an entry point when the a/c window unit was installed during summertime- So, now, I require this specific garden unit (because the mice can reach the exterior window sill), to have me personally install the a/c window unit for the season.

I'm a new investor as well currently in Miami Gardens.

Fresh paint, new flooring, and replacement of a few fixtures made a huge difference.

I moved to Silicon Valley in 1979 for the tech opportunity and owned a home in San Jose (Rose Garden Area, 95126) from 1982 to 2015. 

Even if you're not buying now, get on the MLS every day and practice analyzing deals in that area so you know what a 2 unit, 2 unit with garden, 3 unit, and 4 unit go for and how certain rehabs or other attributes move the needle.
