Note.. due to the circumstance that indeed good roofers do not want to do anything unless you change entire roof... but frankly speaking this is overkill..In fact i observed similar overkill in other professions.. in electrical, hvac you name it...... all through the back of my warm sit...simply by watching tons of youtube videos and courses...The real danger in investing into commercial real estate or any other real estate is not knowing inner details of the trades.........   

I have been told to take plenty of pictures and to ask about the major stuff (roofing, structure, HVAC, plumbing, electric, etc.) but I'm sure there is more I should be questioning.Any and all feedback is appreciated! 

A little bit about myself:Attended University of Illinois at Chicago to earn a bachelors degree in Electrical Engineering and minor in Mechanical Engineering.

Full new kitchens, baths, updating electrical boxes etc. 

There are some hybrid management models you can use but you want to vet that out ahead of time.Other than that you need to consider professional photography, setting up your booking platforms, writing copy for your listings, local permits, landscaping, hot tub/pool, garbage, water, sewer, electricity, cable, internet, snow removal, etc. etc. 

If they want to learn, are willing to learn and willing to put some energy into it, there is absolutely no reason why they can't become real estate investors.

You could find them on craigslist searching for buyers.But honestly, meetings are a waste of time.Meetings are usually for seasoned often older buy and hold investors that just don't have the energy or time to hustle for off market deals, and want a lazy way of getting deals hoping good wholesalers are there  hoping someone has a great amazing deal.Reality check though.

It is currently a corner triplex row home that is metered with separate water & electric & qualifies for a 10 year tax abatement. 

The hot water and electricity supplying the machines will be paid by me.

but with these cars I will actually keep them long term.. since we get free super charging for life.. so we pay Zero for energy to drive them.. and with both of us in the business that saves us at least 500 to 700 a month in gas ..
