Understand that , most of the answers to these type of postings , simply say that we don't have enough information or they assume and accuse that you are the worst guy so that's why you are getting absurd bids .A honest and skilled contractor might charge you more price depending on complexity , but he won't give you absurd bids and waste every ones time , So keep searchingAnd finally - no matter the way you find the contractors , either through referral , thumbtack or any other process , don't take anything granted .

Trying to understand on my own was challenge as it required me to understand bit more then i knew, and my llc and situation was bit more complex then i originally thought.Thanks again

There was an apartment complex that was vacant, until my last year when it was rehabbed and rented out, full vacancy because it was directly across the street from main campus.

This last one can be more complex, because certain types of income can be used and certain types can't. 

I would like to start with just one duplex, but I've been presented with this opportunity to buy a small apartment complex here in South Florida.

It's probably much more complex than you need and a Promissory Note and potentially a mortgage (if they are lending for a particular property rather than to your entity) would suffice.

That the rules are you had to live in it for a year and only 10% of the complex can be rented out.The problem is I have owned this condo for 7 years and been renting it just fine. 44/60 units in this complex are rentals.

However, some people make this work, it just adds a lot more complexity to the equation.

I’m originally from Plano and always looking to get back home with a 20+ units complex!

Storage is not rocket science by any stretch but if you are new to this, it might be advisable to master that before adding to the complexity.
