I grew up in Altamonte Springs ('87-04)  and saw it go from a rural town to what it is today, sort of a haphazard mix of nice residential, not so nice residential, run down commercial with pockets of freshly built/rehabbed commercial, low income apartments-turned condos before the crash-turned foreclosure havens that are barely recovering.... 

I live in the Central Valley (Merced) and am interested in investing in apartments in the Valley - in particular the area between Sacramento and Fresno. 

The breakers, furnace and other things are down there that they may need to access.

Do you have MLS access yet?

Do not believe any myths to keep you away of doing apartment house complexes. 

If someone lives in a single-family home or apartment without HOA rules, we strike that clause.I've read through the BP lease and believe it addresses your issue satisfactorily.

So independent of my concerns with purchasing a C level, 8-unit apartment (this would be my first apartment), can you provide me with an opinion as to whether or not this property is something that you would purchase?

However, (a) there are IRA/401k compliance concepts that you should be aware of and (b) you should develop an efficient method for accessing IRA capital - I'll often get introduced to syndicators that find dealing with IRA/401k money to be a huge nuisance, which it does not have to be.On most syndicated deals there will be leverage involved, resulting - potentially - in taxable UDFI to IRA investors.

Other than the tools they have access to, how do I know if I can trust them in looking out for my best interest?

I have a 15 unit apartment complex that I purchased at the beginning of the year.
