Did they replace Bottom and top, ie dead bolt and the door knob?

Buy it at the top of the cycle, or bottom of the cycle?

The bottom line: there will always be a need for four walls and a roof.

(If you haven't read it - I recommend it.)Assuming he meant an exotic dancer and not a ball room dancer, I would just let the dancer know that he/she is not allowed to operate any business from my complex (legal or illegal), so, if he/she is making any money on the side, I don't care as long it's not happening at "home".Bottom Line: You'll always guess wrong about who you think your best/worst tenants will be.

Bottom Line looking for maximum value closer to 80 % on ARV.

I agree with Frank, $200 net / mo is probably the bottom I would consider, although these days I'm looking for $400+ /mo. $100 / mo is too tight for me, unless there is tremendous upside on the equity piece of the pie, and you are very confident you can keep the place rented. 

From your profile, it doesn't look like you do.Regarding your "food for thought":First, there are a lot of properties available at absolute rock bottom prices here from tax liens.

Bottom line: regardless of how bad you want to jump in, you have to get to a place where your fiancé is on board or it will wreak havoc on your relationship. 

Judging how the bottom of my jeans legs were shredded, it could have been a lot worse. 

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for any helpful advice!
