My question is in regards to factoring in the cost to upgrade a new bathroom even if the bathroom has the basic of basic necessities??

about every 2 years I look to sell my house and upgrade (if the market is in my favor) well..

The market is about $150k-$160k it would take about $5k in upgrades to reach that $160k mark and it may still only be $155k. 

, add selling costs (10k for commission, attorney, title etc..) and you've just broken even.Add the ant problem....? 

I always go with HD cabinets with upgraded hardware.

I am on good terms other than rental lease being broken.

You down payment may be $0, but expect to need to do some maintenance/upgrades.

Thank YouA few Questions off the bat- 1.Is property taxes paid in a lump sum when property is purchased or is is broken up over 12 months?

@Dustin HeinerI would, and have, broken deals up this way:100% to startYou get 8% for doing all the work.  

I've pondered this investment for 3 or so years now, in fact one of the condos was avail in 2012 and when I called to write the check/submit my purchase contract, someone had beat me by an hour or so and lost out.Cliffs notes version - some years back a group bought several of a cities dilapidated office buildings, convinced the city to give them loans, some were in the form of specials, etc - completed a few minor upgrades to the buildings, then condo'd out the buildings and primarily sold the condo's to out of state investors.
