I have a auto body shop that is located in a D class residential area, it was own by my grandfather, he is getting up in age and he is passing it to me. he hasn't done body work in years, he just have been renting the place out to some guys he know for like $220 a month. the utility are still in his name also. my whole idea is to come in, change things around, do the proper things, have a actually lease agreement written out for the tenants, with the new rate increase and rules, there wont be anymore of the late rent payments, there will be a late penalty, the utility will be in the tenants names,I plan to put a security system on the property, I'm new to all of this , its my first property I'm open to advice, suggestions, ideas on what I should do.

I do know that lending can be complicated with a sponsor and a less experienced person on the deal, but I know a good lender to go through, so I am confident that it will be possible to overcome that obstacle.In addition, this is a relatively small deal.

I feel like long term the Hudson County area properties will continue to appreciate as demand gets pushed here from an increasingly expensive New York market.Are there any experienced real estate investor's with their brokerage license that can sit down with me discuss my options moving forward. 

[Once the world says "peace, peace", won't banks (suspiciously) find reasons to increase rates?] 

With $200 a month in rent (just used a high number to account for future increases in rent) if you rented it out, it'd take about 10-12 years or so to match that 30k.3) Have a meeting with your realtor and discuss your displeasure with his strategy.

At any given time I am confident I could rent 10 properties at the same time if I had them available.

Sounds like a good opportunity to increase cash flow there.   

Why not re-offer 350k with a 100k seller credit (for example) and use that credit for down payment and closing costs when appraisal comes in at 370k like you feel confident it would.

I have spent about 75K on my real estate education which has increased my net worth by roughly half a million dollars in just over two years.

I usually try to be as leveraged as possible as this increases my ROI.
