You can look those up with the local planning department if there are major redevelopment projects from roads and sidewalks to building renovations.  

The only thing I could do with the land is build a house there.

I'm not sure what unit count you are looking at, but most 5+ unit buildings need to be LTRs, but anything 2-4 unit multifamily can easily be done with A DSCR loan for short-term rentals. 

Building equity over time can help mitigate risks associated with market volatility.Thanks,

Hello, Bigger Pockets this is my first post so not sure if y'all would respond but I have a couple of questions on my first rental property I'm 24 with my own business that trying to build a REP. this may be a long post sorry                    (side note I'm doing a BRRR without the major renovations i will maybe possibly do a kitchen but its basically turn-key sorry if in the wrong forum) I have about 70k and I am willing to put up to 50k(20%) on a 250k house and have the other 20k as reserves. 

Hello! I currently manage my parents' Condos for short-term renting. It has been going great, and I could do this for others. My question is, how do I find other clients to host their property for them? 

I have a 12 unit building that I'm in talks with seller on.

Take a look at the Cleveland and Dayton areas in Ohio, where you can find a turnkey and section 8 ready single family homes under $100k.I can help you build a team here in Ohio to get started.

Why do you run away when you are asked point blank if you own the buildings you claim to own?

If you or your brother can house hack, that can also offer you great low down payment programs and help you build your wealth even faster.
