Not a large complex but 4-units max.

A good realtor should able to guide you on what level of rehab if any is best for your complex and market.

Background: I have a two building complex in a C neighborhood.

Last weekend we put a sweet property in Oceanside under contract.

Unlike the usual way of doing this, which can be quite complex, I use a streamlined banking-style approach where you raise capital by offering savings accounts to your investors.

I've beenn moving over to Commercial properties and financing because, believe it or not, in many ways it's easier to get a loan to buy or build a $5 or $10MM apartment complex or commercial building than it is to play some of the games with residential rehab, schedule and chase contractors, etc.

Here in Denver, I see transactions of major apartment complexes where units that will rent for $1000 sell for $100,000.

My wife is a petite, beautiful brunette that is soft spoken and sweet.

I didn`t bother to try and bomb the property(as soon as I saw it, I wrote it off as a viable residence) In general, upstate SC is beautiful, and both the climate and economy are superior to much of the rest of the country - there is a lot to like about the area; jobs galore and the perfect "sweet spot" of nearly ideal climate and low taxes/cost of living, coupled with a booming economy and (still-rising) housing market, so I don`t sweat this crappy/demolition-ready mobile Anyway....I`m back off to NY tomorrow morning, so this whole thing has been a learning experience for me :groovy: , and I just wanted to share :wink: RE investing,....it`s not just a job, it`s an adventure :lol:

It works, but it can also get very complex to keep all your ducks in line and I've seen many of the best entrepreneurs lose control due to their own success.
