I just had my roofer look at a rental I just bought hoping he'd just give me a green light (I trust him), and he found a few hundred dollars of things to tidy up including some siding falling off.It's not a "bad" deal.

These are brand new units being installed into brand new windows and I just want to make sure it’s done properly.

If you want I can put more lights outside or provide lawn furniture for you to relax.

Depending on your market, that multi-unit property may not be available in 4-6 months when we get the green light on the economy.

It'll take time for either sellers to see the light and compress the bid/ask spread, or for buyers (or at least this buyer) to have the confidence in the near term performance to underwrite to more optimistic assumptions. 

For STNL (pharmacies, grocery stores, home improvement stores, Costco, Wal-mart, auto stores, national to strong regional corporate gas station brands, dollar stores, some national corporate credit QSR's, Davita Dialysis & Fresnuis) still have lenders bullish with 30 to 35% down and some have interest rates in the 3's.

Take a car for example that brand new Truck, Tesla etc. you buy for $60k and you are happy with it it is a great car, but you find out the dealer down the street was selling it for $50k the exact same car just a lower price. 

I’ve given each option some thought and each have there pros and cons, I wondered if somebody with more investment experience could shed some light on the situation. 

I have the money saved to make the higher down payment on the little cottage but it's close to all of what I had set aside to purchase and light reno so it would be tight.

Most people take a photo with their phone in poor lighting and not great focus, so its not a reliable way to verify.
