I seems like it will be difficult logistically, but is it legal?

We are in the Denver market which is very difficult to break into. 

Unlike most organizations, I believe in keeping the historic look of the neighborhood, and revitalizing the homes, while allowing them to keep their rustic charm.According to the article the amount of sold listings has more than doubled since 2015 and home prices have increased from $113,000 to $143,000 in the last six monthsAlthough the neighborhood may not be quick returns, there is definitely long term potential in the Barrio Hollywood Neighborhood and we look forward to further investments in this community.  

If you increased the down payment, would the seller be ok with it as previously agreed?

Personally, I think it is more difficult to own multitudes of SFHs that are leveraged than it is to own MFH, and most people ramp up from SFHs to MFHs when their portfolio starts getting to that point. 

They'll offer all sorts of "fixes" to increase your property value, but likely don't have the expertise to do them. 

I've created a network of brokers, buyers and investors, but never had control of the asset, therefore it was very difficult to make money.

In general, it is harder to secure props that flow in these areas because they tend to be better taken care of, leaving less room for a well-done cost-effective rehab to increase value while keeping the all-in price below market.

Seems like a very intriguing way of managing property and benefitting from increase NOI and ultimately property value.I am looking at a 3 family property that needs a ton of work (perhaps $75-100K, although I haven't done a deep dive on pricing yet).

We are finding it difficult to find desirable investments at this time.
