A tenant set the kitchen on fire.

If you know of a company that does kitchen remodel in Akron Ohio, would love to hear them too. 

Things to look for are low rents, kitchen remodel, addition of a bathroom/bedroom, amenities that tenants want.

I am working on painting and adding LVP flooring to the living, dining room, and kitchen.

We’ve since made a lot of progress on terms: 5% seller carry2 years interest-onlyballoon at end of year 5pricing is now $700k building and $500k FF&E (separated cleanly)  Your comment about comps on kitchen buildouts + hood systems is a good call.

So, for a kitchen to me that would mean that I would rather have a dishwasher, microwave hood, and all brand new appliances over better quality countertops and flooring.

Quote from @David Tang: We’re evaluating a property that is a legal 2-unit with an in-law suite and would appreciate feedback from those who’ve dealt with similar setups.Current conditions:Legal 2 units + finished in-law suiteOnly 2 gas meters currentlyIn-law ceiling height is approx. 6’2”In-law already has a kitchen, bathroom, and bedroomNo dedicated heating or cooling for the in-law unit at the momentWhat we’re considering:Installing central air / HVAC for all 3 unitsPotentially adding a 3rd gas meterLooking for insight on:Code and permitting considerations (especially around ceiling height)Pros/cons of tying the in-law into shared HVAC vs separate systemsWhether adding a 3rd gas meter is typically worth it (cost vs rentability/value)Red flags you’ve run into with in-law units from a resale, appraisal, or inspection standpointWould love to hear from anyone who’s rehabbed, owned, or sold properties with in-law units — especially in older buildings.Thanks in advance.Was the in-law apt legal AND done with permits when done?

My humble advice to anyone attempting to do creative finance is:Creative finance is for experienced investors who have access to capital if anything goes wrong.Learn the lawsDon't use a contract "off the internet", laws vary by state and are also regulated on a federal levelLearn the financing techniques correctlyDon’t skip parts of the processDon’t ever do a “kitchen table” closingUse the proper deedAn attorney can help you with the legal work, but the rest you are on your ownYour guru will not bail you out“Investing” in someone else’s deal by providing a small 2nd loan so the “investor” can pay for “cash to the seller” and for “closing costs” so he can do the deal is a very bad planKnow what problems can ariseLearn the responses and solutions to problems before they are neededKnow everything there is to know about Title and what that meansKnow who a "protected class" individual isLearn the "back doors"Learn human natureUnderstand timelinesUnderstand regulation enforcement (some of these "mistakes" have a 10 year statue of limitations ( they can charge you 10 years AFTER you do the transaction) and carry hefty fines and possible imprisonmentThe court doesn't accept "I didn't know" for an answer"Know that the source of the lead plays a serious role in some states and federallyKnow how much of a "profit" pushes the boundaries to invite an investigationYou can be sued by the seller if you don’t do things correctlyYou are automatically at fault if an investigator or attorney or regulator gets involved.
