Hello, I made a similar request in the New Orleans specific forum but I think that area is dead so please forgive me if cross-posting is frowned upon here :/I'm looking to find a solid property management company for a rental unit my folks have in New Orleans.

Although I would be very willing to put money on the sun coming up, little risk since we are all dead if it does not, I would not put any money on assuming appreciation will continue. 

If you look at it from HUD's perspective, "We Pay Rent For Dead People" is not the kind of headline they'd ever want.

But drive-bys, shooting on an occupied dwelling, and assault with a deadly weapon only happens in the worst of neighborhoods.Once you've identified an area that works, then expand the search a little bit and see if there are any other properties nearby that may work for you.

Both are negative cash flow when estimating roughly 50% expenses and a 10% return on the equity lying dead in each property.

My comment was in jest -- about a thread that seemed to be dead, which now appears to have life.

Most of the people there that weren't brain dead were making a consistent $15k - $20k per month... 

Negotiate the deal terms in a letter of intent, keep it dead simple, you want to negotiate the deals terms, without lawyers, principcal to principal on all major buiness points.2.

I'm surprised they didn't list the intermodal exchange around the corner as a positive even though this house is 4 blocks from dead-ending into the rail exchange.
