It is the first forum I have actually participated in. I

I don't have too much work to do in the 2nd or 3rd units, more just cosmetic things such as painting, cleaning and for the smaller of the 2 bedrooms in the 2nd unit that the current tenants are in I was planning on ripping out the carpet and putting in some hardwood floors.Fortunately I was planning on moving into unit #1 which was the most beat up by the previous tenant and as with all of them it's mostly cosmetic type of work so shouldn't be too noisy.

if you have photos of these items in the property before move-in, I would say that is your proof right there.

Been wanting to do it for a long time and finally jumped in. I

Well... that’s where you come in. I

I personally can't say how much will be needed for reno's for sure but from the outside looking in I would say at least $100k.Is there a potential play on this property?

I write property and casualty for the company I work for.For anyone who may be familiar with the market I am in I would be interested to know what your experiences, and thoughts are concerning the, or at least your best real estate investment options.We have been researching for the last month or so and trying to find good information and fell upon this site yesterday.

They start small and see how desperate the person is for now money to take a lessor amount and settle for below what they claim is worth.Your unit even if the tenant recovers will not be ADA compliant so the odds of this tenant paying or moving back in is slim to none.

I'll definitely look into the CLTO.Any suggestions on those other areas to invest in? I
