Occupancy has improved a lot since then. 5% actual with 5% economic might be more realistic for 2016. incremental rent growth after the property is stable is 2%I think we can safely assume a 3% growth rate going forward due to high demand and low supply (depends on your area). 

@Meera Lakhavani The prices on rehabbed properties in that area are already high enough, so given you have a fully rented building you will be covering the expenses (not sure if you want any roommates).

Any research you all can suggest or books/youtube videos you can recommend will be very much appreciated!

Go to China, visit the tens (I think less than 100) of ghost towns that were built with all the complexes and high rises, and see that about 100 people live in the town.
