By helping my tenants I have improved neighborhoods (my homes are the nicest in the area) stabilized them - home owners tend to stay longer and take better care of their homes, and helped improve the credit and lives of those I help.

I usually look for minor value add opportunities, like paint, drywall, and other cosmetic improvements that can quickly make properties much more appealing.Best of luck investing!

Hi @Carlos Martinez welcome to BP and thank you for your service. 

I recently considered a service that basically does what you mention specifically as "corporate housing" with companies, but never went further into it as I ended up renting the unit out to some normal folks.

I normally have them sign the Information About Brokerage Services if we meet up and ALWAYS have them sign the IABS and a non representation agreement if we agree on a price and I get the house under contract.

Although there are still challenges (as with most older towns) things have been steadily improving for many years now - most residents love the place and are excited about the many amenities & general direction of the area.I would love to find a local wholesaler or other sources of good deals - any suggestions on where to look? 

Sounds like you have lots of room to improve cash flows though.

My goal is to pay a fair price for good service and not be taken advantage of.

There are many other investment options in addition to this.I would not recommend taking a loan out of your 401k to pay for the improvements.

I am here to extent my services as a Buyer's Agent, Listing Agent, Investor's Agent, and Property Manager to anyone who need help or even just advice.
