Will you be improving the units over time?

Recognizing the potential in properties with minimal improvement needs allowed us to streamline this process.

@Natali CobbIn-unit laundry in duplexes can attract tenants, increase rent, and improve retention.

That's a low-return improvement, compared to say new bathrooms/kitchens.IMHO, if you expect to increase your net through rental and market appreciation, consider the length of time it will take to realize that goal—many years. 

You would have to improve the property (dramatically) at great expense to actual meet that definition and use it as a townhomes.

Cash Payment: Paying cash for improvements is often the most economical way.

Are you doing any capital improvements to the park?

While my insurance charges are relatively low each year given this is a condo, I learned to better assess who is behind budget planning at the HOA level for all of the units for roof, cleaning costs, basement improvements (shared by all units), given this was run well by one individual.

You'll be fine, especially if you're using additional equity contribution to improve the property before your refinance.

I've found myself more focused, and have come to the realization that while, the vast world of REI and improvement podcasts is a great way to find out what is possible, it does not work well for me to help drill down and take action, especially when this is an industry that literally everything could work.I'm excited to take this new "era" to BP con and use that as another launching point going into the Q4 and Q1, and ensuring I'm saying NO more than I'm saying yes.
