Or it could be a drug dealer who needs a few months to get a crop or two of cannabis or meth made and then leave in the middle of the night.

I have a 4BR 2BA rental on the east side of San Antonio that I'm thinking about selling, and I'm looking for some recommendations for an appraiser who has a lot of experience in that side of town.Todd

To give a general sense of what I have seen here, in middle-of-the-road neighborhoods a decent 650sqft 1 br/bath condo is running around 300k.I do understand that in general, anywhere, higher prices come with the potential for even greater reward.

I'd like to invest in these areas as well as the South East and South Florida.

ok my farther have a paid for home in New Orleans east.

As for my background: I lived in the Bay Area for the past 14 years, mostly in San Francisco, though now I'm in the East Bay.

Those citimortgage people I woked with, disappeared on me in the middle of things, when we were like 3 weeks behind the original closing date!

It's in a great middle-income neighborhood in a popular, affluent suburb of Dallas. 

The units I am looking at now are condo style with a basement walkout unit and a middle level unit.

I've focused my search to parts of Etobicoke, Scarborough, East York/ Leslieville and Danforth area.
