Ethynol is cheaper than gas, but the cost savings vs the efficiency compared to gasoline (worse gas mileage from ethynol) supposedly makes the savings come out to a wash.

@Andrew Johnson I appreciate your thoughts regarding my decision, and I plan to push forward with the small - midsize commercial apartment building as you suggest.I would also be interested in hearing how the property management situation has played out for you in AR as I am working towards a similar investment setup to what you have.

Was he blackmailing us?

If we know it is a rental and the owner isn't pushing us to finish so they can get back in 2 days before we agreed on, we can tackle multiple rooms at once and charge less for a PITA fee.

Maybe someone would like to start a car wash business and needs the property.

Right on point, pivoting to ideas like AIRBNB or Sober living homes is how we are pushing through until rental rates can catch up with the market value ratios.

One I noticed pushed a monthly discount, and yet had rates for 3-4 bedroom which seem to be on the higher end of the market, although they seem reasonable given to cost of homes.

I'm stronger and faster than I was in college, and I'm pushing 35.  

If they can sell your house for 2% and someone else's for 4% which do you think they are going to push a buyer towards?

It was about the size of a push mower.
