@Fitzgerald Hall - This needs to be transformed into a BP blog btw. 

What I found interesting is the ban on demolition of single family for transformation into multifamily, as well as a restriction on structure size increase at 15% I understand that this is to help preserve neighborhood character, but seem that it may encourage “slumlord-style” splitting of single family homes.

Hello BP community, I want to create indoor/outdoor micro sports facilities by purchasing or leasing dilapidated buildings and lots and transforming them into member-based soccer facilities.

I buy duplexes, which are fairly simple and for $10k-12k per side I can transform it to like new status if need be.  

Low cash out of pocket, huge transformation with amazing cap gains and cash flow combined.

It will be interesting to see not only on-campus transformation, but also how off-campus medical office space evolves in the West End, Beacon Hill and Government Center.https://www.bizjournals.com/boston/news/2019/05/13/first-look-mgh-plans-1-million-square-foot.html?

It may be an area that is transforming rapidly from D+/C- to C+ or better and you may have a goldmine.

Anybody who's seen the South Park transformation knows that overtime you can see a "bad" neighborhood turn to very profitable and modern. 

The reason you should check this is that sometimes the electrician will say you need to replace the outlets, switches, fixtures, wiring, breaker panel, meter socket, meter, the transformer outside, and the power plant across town, but maybe you don't actually have to do that much

So, also not a complete transformation in my book.
