Hoover, bluff park, cahaba heights will occasionally have a good deal pop up on the listings, but they go real fast.

Henry,Are all the properties in the Council Bluffs area?

I've used Behr Whitewashed Oak in ten units. every tenant loves it.  

There is a chance that this is a pure bluff (There are companies out there that work on the behalf of carriers that simply call on these leases and get commissions based on any rental reductions). 

Semi kididng but not.3 and half hour direct flight out of oak,SFO, or San Jose AND central not eastern time...So when you need to fly out at 6am to do something and then fly back same night it can be done (and flights aren't terrible in terms of Price).Oh did I mention basically everyone talks about KC locals, investors, and people just starting out...

Most of them basically say "I want to buy your property at xxxx oak street, as is, quick close" or something to that extent.

I have a friend who lives in Council Bluffs and they love it there as far as I know.

Hi - I'm in Oak Cliff and I want to deploy my funds to buy and hold. 

I used to own a similar duplex on LIve Oak (5820), so literally  the same address about 3-4 blocks over. 

It is wedged between the Duwamish river and the bluff below highland park / white center to east and west,   and industrial SODO to the north and the northeast corner of Burien to the south.SP has a lot of comparatively lower income residents vs. seattle at large,  and its a very diverse neighborhood;   If you speak spanish it would be a big advantage if you are looking at managing MF in that area.
