I have such a deep love for the Rogue Valley and love calling it home. 

Lead/asbestos or not, these are repairs that are just a pain, messy, and you don't want to breathe any of it regardless of what it is.And, the build date is not the most important date; look for the effective age. 

@Costin I. we don't all have commission breath! 

That's $3,000/week and he doesn't have a broker breathing down his neck and can do all the deals that he comes across.Sorry it's a long story, but it illustrates legal issues if you're a licensed agent doing deals on the side.

Your best bet is to speak with a commercial/portfolio lender who is willing to help you get creative or find someone with deep pockets who is willing to go in with you on this property. 

Or is this because I haven’t looked deep enough into the market?

Excited to deep dive this one.

Our advisor has done very well for us regardless, but it's time for us to take a deep dive into the finances and compare some real numbers between stocks and RE.We currently rent in NYC and that exact question is the crux of my other question in the forums, https://www.biggerpockets.com/...

It is like nothing I've ever experienced in my life.The point of this post, however, is not to lament my woes or even go on a deep dive about how much Covid sucked (because it was pretty awful).

Start with podcast epoisde one on the bigger pockets website and listen to as much as you can from the beginning, the ones from back then with Josh and Brandon, I feel and just my opinion and could be wrong were much better because a lot of the guest were actually doing deals not as much people coming on the show as a syndicator looking for investors Josh also ask a lot of how to questions and get deep into how they were doing deals and you can learn more.
