@susan capeta,As a rule of thumb, listen close to K.marie P.She's a very tall and smart lady.

Low quality assets in okay locations throw off cash flow (sometimes) but generally do not have long term appreciation or high quality dirt value for redevelopment in future years.Some areas do have massive transformations but those are big gambles over time.

I had a few tire kickers but I received a call from a lady in San Francisco who owned 40 acres with no access in Northern California.  

I noticed it hasn't had any activity around it lately and after doing some digging around, found out the lady who owned it was in her late 80's and was either in a home or moved in with a family member.

So I guess what the basic question is can Pittsburgh sustain these new markets and what does it mean for existing nieghborhoods beside these nieghborhoods and further from the city, To me things seem to be more of a gamble, then the stabilty you have seen from Pittsburgh in the past.

We all lost out on that deal and the seller gambled that my client wasn't going to lawyer up. 

Thanks in advance ladies and gents!

Hello, Ladies and GentsI am about to go on the military deployment for 1 year.

I have had doctors and lawyers rip my rentals up so its always a gamble! 

There is a mentally unstable lady in one of them which he said she can go if I wanted.
