Inner city urban core is a niche that if you can do it will work fine.. but you cant think for a minute that the effort to keep them churning along is the same as investing in A class or strong B.  and

Class B and above.

Believe me, PM work is a business with very narrow profit margins.Basically, it looks to me as if this isn't an out of state issue, it's a 'this combination of property and service providers' issue.

My recommendation is you check out a couple websites, narrow it down to your top 3 and call each one.

Perhaps the scope is narrowed to private buyers?

While you'll want to know as much as possible about every aspect, it's good to narrow your sites on one or two paths and become a true expert in those fields.

It seems to me you'd be better served and have a more marketable project if you narrow down the choices.

My strategy is Class A/B and most likely they will be in retail value, which all his properties also are, so he understand my strategy.  

If we have tenant A,B and C and they all fulfilled the terms of their agreement I do not see how the landlord could force tenant C to be responsible for extending the lease terms when they gave notice per the original agreement and vacated.

Hope that helps narrow it down a bit.
