If the HOA is willing to budget some money for fresh paint on all the exterior buildings, it is value-add and will attract more investors like me.

Hi Everyone,After several inspections that I did (4 to be accurate), I start to think that my inspector is not professional as I got used to from other states I bought...The report almost has no photos, most of the data is general for all report (such explanation on the issue that is being tested) and complete areas that he doesnt check (for example in case of rodent - he completely stops the inspection in the room/space/area).From old inspections I did, all reports were with plenty of data, pictures (and one unique contractor in Las Vegas even had price assessment!).

For example would you pay $22k plus $6k in repairs making your all in $28k to get this property?

For Example a 12 unit I'm evaluation is listed for $422K, but my valuation without PM and Cap Ex in the NOI makes it worth about $373K.

With this new development (no pun intended) I would love to connect with some builders who might be looking to meet some new agents or bring in some fresh faces. 

I definitely understand your point Ann thank you...my fear was not the actual speaking with people but the fact that, like I mentioned for example, I've never had to fill out a p/s agreement and all the legality of it all...Ive recently sent out requests from some local investors in my area for guidance to point me in the right direction.

For example, tile flooring i got the second cheapest put diagonal in a very expensive home and it looked amazing.

(Example 2 bed rents in 2016=$1176, 2017=$1142, 2018= $1110). 

For example, if I own a SFH free and clear worth 30K, how do I get that into an IRA when the limit is $6,500? 

For example, some properties come with municipal liens that are hard to quantify.
