There are people who feel that conducting a little social media research is a violation of privacy.

While others are "Cars have to be within 5.25 inches of the yellow parking line designating your parking space".I have a feeling if they have that in their Bylaws or rules you are going to have a difficult time getting it changed. 

Maybe saying we didn't buy right would be more apt- I acted as my own property manager, which evolved into me feeling sympathy for my tenants.

Im feeling pretty good about my angle thanks to BP.

As an Active Investor here in the area, feel free to reach out to me with any questions you might have.

Some lenders may request an appraisal fee, but be sure to do extra due diligence if anything feels sketchy or too good to be true. 

Feel free to ask any questions in the forums.

Anyway, personally those feel like too much of a risk for me at this point, as I don't have any experience with hiring/supervising contractors etc, and I suppose doing this the regular remodeling / general contractor way, any potential profit would go to the GC rather than me.So maybe I'm missing something, but it seems that for a newbie it's rather hard to get those kind of deals on properties?

Even if you self manage at some point you might not want to and if you didn't allocate for that cost on purchase you will have diminished returns.Most investors can't handle by themselves doing everything anything over a 20 unit property.
