I find the Huntsville small multifamily market to be very limited supply and generally I don't like the numbers.

Do you buy your supplies for the contractor?

(Ie, Vancouver, where population is growing by 5-7% a year and supply does not catch up to demand)- renting it out can take longer in a large development as you are 1 of perhaps 50 identical apartments for rent (if you’re on the southeast corner, all the floor plans on that corner is the same layout) - selling it in the future can be the same headache (see above)- some of the properties come with all the bells and whistles, such as rental guarantee, deposit incentives, free upgrades and etc, so do not be afraid to ask if you do decide to go ahead.

Since the tenant is supplying all the money to pay off the mortgage, etc...that leaves ONLY the down payment as your actual cost. 

I purchased most of the supplies independently, to avoid paying for more than labor.

Big fan of Greenfront Furniture!

Upon inspection, M has accumulated 4-5 bags of trash, a 3-4ft tall stack of scrapped furniture wood, and an amalgamation of scrap metals, including what appears to be a commercial oven or perhaps ice maker. 

Prices drop when there is an over supply of inventory.

Never stored cars or tools, just racks of clothing and furniture. 

I had to move out their furniture on my own since their off boarding team only had availability in mid May.
