@Brad Bellstedt Thank you for the response, a lot of food for thought in there!!

Or if you did get one, was the inspection report not detailed enough to highlight the potential problems? 

Highlight a 5-10 properties that catch your eye and look up the local school district and local precinct - for accurate crime stats.To get "a feel" for the neighborhood, I recommend driving by the different areas during weekends and evenings.Lastly, a local Realtor can point you in the right direction if you have a particular price point in mind.

It is an amazing city, with great food, sports, and culture. 

Many things can leave smell or residue (cigarettes, marijuana, vaping, candles, greasy food fry).

We very recently purchased a food truck and are attempting to get that rolling as well.

A lot of folks see successful people and don't always understand the struggles that real estate investors/entrepreneurs face:- 80 hour work weeks- Sleepless nights- Strain on the family- Ridicule- Events missed- Late nights changing door locks, picking up condoms, patching holes in walls, picking up old rotting food from the floor...- Health issues- Financial issues- Loss of friends- I can go on and on...To those looking for the "magic bullet," here it is,...work harder than everyone else.

I will arrange location, date and time, food, fliers, etc.

However, I don’t exactly want to move out of my parents house yet because of the associated costs of living on your own (food, cookware, dishware, toiletries.

Just food for thought.
