Generally speaking what are some indicators of up and coming neighborhoods? 

Does anybody know if it is possible to buy an individual non-performing FHA note from Quicken Loans?

That being said, some states/cities also require the tenant to indicate that they want to renew.

This community is a great place to learn and has many like-minded individuals who have a wealth of knowledge from all walks of Real Estate.Investing within Seattle City limits can be challenging, for the reasons you've mentioned in your post. 

I would certainly make sure you did environmental due diligence including having the sellers sign an environmental questionnaire indicating whether they know of any environmental concerns.I have seen environmental contamination from gas stations go under major interstates and impact properties several hundred feet away.

If they do not pay within the time indicated on the notice you proceed to evict.

This is a business where ones success is almost totally dependent on the individual.

I guess it all depends on the individual and the property you are insuring. 

No, however it's easier for tax reporting if it's going to be used for 100% business purposes.If mixed use, generally it's better to keep in the name of the individual. 

So Philly is a city composed of individual micro markets that vary from neighborhood to neighborhood.
