They have a ton of Wall St cash that's being gambled as in 401Ks

They did not move the fridge, oven, and every wall needed scrubbing.

You also have to know your market - as it was mentioned above, theming is a non-issue in most places but it should make sense for the setting, or people going to the mountains don't expect to see seashells on the walls. 

If you and your wife are committed to investing in all cash, I recommend Wall Street.

I first got interested in real estate investing because of my better half, she always spoke to me about passive income and building a financial wall for our family through investments, so here I am jajaja. 

If so, consider the cost of adding noise insulation to the street-facing walls. 

We basically took it down to the walls and everything is new.

Otherwise I would walk as significant structural issues like wall displacement, footer settlement, sinkholes etc aren't going to be fixed cosmetically by Joe's Handy Service.

There’s less risk involved because there’s no unforeseen issues unlike a home where you might tear into a wall and find termite damage.

Because laws here prevent us from collecting for some wall damage/scuffs after a certain length.
