It's highly unusual that an investor would want to sell a high performing unit with a great tenant...So expect problems if inheriting at tenant.  

I think you are having trouble because you are asking an unusual question.

He guesses "unusual" expenses that will go away if he is ever back in charge.

Here are some of my thoughts- it would be a very unusual (but far from unheard of) value add that costs $10k to increase value $125k.  

The reason it on fire is due to the high number of people buying renovating and then selling in 6-8 months.Then add the new construction on multifamily up to 4 units going up every moth and there you have a unusual superior 3-6 month market analysis that appraisers can use to actually value homes closer to the rest of the US.

Bunch of poor info in here tonight which is unusual...regardless, OP read belowI've been in this position for awhile - so the first thing to know is that there is STILL a BENEFIT.

That's unusual and it would be very difficult to find a passive investment like that.Also direct control means I know exactly what's going on.

Not much going on except for an unusual amount of service calls the last month from all but 1 property.

Going dark is not unusual if that's the case.

In real estate, ChatGPT "quick, straightforward answers" will get you sued.Someone I buy properties at a discount for, ran into a legal problem that was unusual for him.
