BP,I'm eyeing a 14 unit complex in a tertiary market in Florida with a population of about 25,000.

Lots of helpful informationAs others have mentioned, I've used the urban zoning in Seattle to get an idea of what could be built, which could potentially be a multi story apartment complex, but it's really hard to guesstimate the build costs and demo costs.

But it depends on what your sweet spot is.  

There isn't much you can't do with these two, besides complex scheduling and costing, and they are easy to format to your needs and preferences.”

The actual tax management process for a C Corp. is more complex but is much better than even most CPAs appreciate.

It may depend on where you start (buying a new place versus a real fixxer for example; with a bunch of problem tenants to cycle out or mostly vacant units); and the complexity of the property (an older multiplex with quirks takes longer than a newer condo for example)...There are some good past topics on "seasoning" of rentals generally on BP...

Cohen Highley, the firm that I mentioned, has a partner who specialises in complex cases, then some junior lawyers and then finally a group of paralegals who do most of the representation of clients at the Landlord and Tenant Board.

They move you to the back, doesn't help a whole lot but you get seated next to a sweet woman with an extreme perfume allergy.

In this day and age, I found the sweet spot for a partner is someone who did not grow up in the States, but has been here long enough to know what's up (5-10 years), but not long enough to get Americanized and entitled.

I know it is a very complex process, which is why it's so appealing to me.
