It being a large area with a wide variety of income ranges, there are many kinds of housing offerings and prices here.   How many bedrooms do you need?  Do you need to be within 2 blocks of public transportation?  Does it  have to be near base?  Which level of security do you require for your apartment?  Are you renting a small studio condo, an apartment, a room in a house, a duplex, or a whole house?  All these factors weigh in greatly on affecting what the rent is.

Probably not much.  Just invest in a mutual fund that invests in building

You only own about a foot or two out from the building, so whatever trees and bushes are there, don't think about changing them, read your contracts very carefully, ask about "rent a cop" patrols through peak summer hours when all the kids are loose from school, also of special events that are extremely loud, that you may either want to embrace or not.  Do you have "Lake access", how many parking spaces and storage areas are considered yours? And yes location, do you want to climb steps, or hear others as they climb them if you have purchased the lower condo? How much traffic and noise is in the area.

Having your business buy the property will cost you more because you will need a commercial mortgage with higher interest rates. It is easier to get mortgages that are for you personally, or for a multifamily with 4 units or less. Talk to a lender about this and they will give you a good sense of your options.\nIf I you have the means you might consider buying and renovating a house for yourself and moving every two years. Research you market carefully and put ion alot of sweat equity instead of capital. This way you get to pocket the entire profit without captial gains, as long as you declare it your primary residence. You can also look into doing a 1031 exchange if you live there for less than 2 years to delay the tax payments and use the money in your next acquisition.\nAnother path could be to buy a 3 or 4 family with a commercial mortgage and an LLC to protect youself, rent them, convert the whole building to condos, then renovate the units one at a time as tenants turnover happens and sell the condos indiviually if the market is good. Be sure to talk to the lending bank about your conversion plans before setting up the financing.\nI recommend a trip to the library and read as much as possible before doing anything. Others have done this before, and they share the experience through books.\nGood luck!!

Working capital. The most important facet in considering purchasing commercial property is how it affects the owner's working capital. The initial investment of the purchase can impede the business' working capital, restrict expansion opportunities and affect the business' ability to operate during an economic downturn.\n\nFunctional obsolescence. Over time, business processes change and demands fluctuate. A building may become functionally obsolete if operations change due to advances in technology or other factors. Likewise, if the workforce size increases, space configuration requirements may change, necessitating significant investment in a building's reconfiguration. Therefore, it is important to consider a building's construction and its flexibility when it comes to remodeling.\n\nEconomic obsolescence. Does the building have enough size and amenities to reflect the company's image? Does the age of the building affect the ability to produce revenue in concert with the company's projected growth?\n\nDemographic obsolescence. Factors that affect the desirability of the location can change the value of the investment. Deteriorating neighborhoods can raise employees' concerns about safety and security and require unforeseen costs of protective services and, ultimately, lower the market value of the investment. Changes in nearby roadways and public transportation may make it more difficult to attract desirable employees. If the business owner plans to sell the company in the future, demographic obsolescence can create a significant decrease in the value of the business.\n\nAppreciation of value. Short-term economic fluctuations aside, historically, buildings in the Austin area have appreciated at an average of 3.5 percent per annum. Also, keep in mind that a portion of the mortgage payment is debt service, and the owner's equity in the building increases as mortgage payments are made on the property.\n\nTax advantages. The depreciation expense connected with the value of the building is a reduction of ordinary income, up to 40 percent, assuming the owner is in a 40 percent tax bracket. At the time of sale or disposition, the owner is taxed on the recapture of the depreciation as a long-term capital gain of 15 percent. In actuality, taxes are not paid on the difference between the depreciation and the long-term capital gain, which, in this case, would be 25 percent -- a significant savings for the owner.\n\nHedge against inflation. Building ownership secures a guaranteed cost for occupying the location of choice. As building replacement costs for a like kind and quality increase, rental rates increase as leases renew. However, these increases are circumvented if the business owner also owns the location. Furthermore, as the replacement costs increase, so does the value of the building.\n\nControl of property. Along with the pride of ownership, a business owner who owns a location is able to control the unique value of the property -- for example, signage, expansion opportunities, level of maintenance and improvements. Additionally, the owner determines the building's rules, such as hours of access, air conditioning usage and types of businesses that may occupy a portion of the building.\n\nTo ensure a smooth experience, prospective buyers should put together an acquisition team. Buyers will need a certified public accountant to analyze the viability of the purchase, a source to secure financing options, a real estate broker to locate properties, and a real estate attorney to draft the offer and evaluate and approve closing and loan documents.\n\nAlso, it is imperative to have a structural engineer and specialty contractors conduct inspections of the building's structural, mechanical and exterior systems. An architect should be enlisted if remodeling is necessary.\n\nProfessional guidance in purchasing a commercial facility can make the difference between a rewarding experience and fi

depends on how much your house is worth.  So can't really answer this question without that info.

The best option for you would be to find others with 30k to invest and see about setting up a REIT (real estate investment trust). Think about it, get 10 people together and now you've got 300k to work with. At that point, you can put the money down on a strip mall, apt complex, etc... Commercial real estate is very lucrative and often you will walk in cash positive. In fact, you can't buy the place (conventionally) unless you are cash positive. You get to see the previous owners 3yrs of financial records to tell you if it's going to yeild you a return or not and so on.

Maybe. It depends upon the local real estate market. It also depends upon your definition of Investment. Are you looking at paying cash for a home there in the hopes of seeing the price go up in order to make a profit? OR are you looking to pay cash for this home to Live in either full or part time? I would hesitate if you are looking at using it as an investment vehicle. Most of the time Real Estate is a Liability with Maintenance, insurance, utilities, Property Taxes, association dues etc... That exceed the annual appreciation of the value of the property. My question to you is Do YOU REALLY NEED 2 houses? If not, put your money elsewhere to grow. Unless you are looking to purchase property in one of the few areas that are involved in states of Hyper-Inflation of property values, your money is better invested elsewhere and you can use it at any time to buy property where you want to live. Examples of these are the Ridiculously overpriced Condominium market in Florida and the WAY overpriced houses in Southern California. I believe that these growth rates are unsustainable and many people are going to lose their shirts there eventually. \n  Point is I would need alot more information to make an educated answer to your question beyond Maybe.

It depends on various factors:\n\n- How much is the lease for the space you want?\n- How much leasehold improvements are you going to make?\n- How much for utilities (e.g. water, telephone, etc.)\n- How much for all the shelvings and bookcases?\n- How much for furniture?\n- How much inventory will you be carrying?\n- How much insurance will you get?\n- How much for permits and licenses, including zoning/planning, fire, burglar alarm permit, etc.\n- How much for signages?\n- How many people you will hire and much for salaries?\n- How much initial marketing will you do?\n- How much for office supplies and office equipment?\n- How much for credit card processing machines and merchant account?\n- How much will you spend for the launching of the bookstore (if any)?\n- PLUS spare cash for at least 6 months to keep your cashflow running\n\nAnswer the questions above and you will know how much money you will need.

Well you can take the squaree footage of the apartments and divide it into the over all squar footage to get a percentage. That percentage would dictate the amount of expenses they should absorb. That is if your expenses are generalized.

How much do you need?

In the city, not much, a very small 2 bedroom goes for 500,000.  If you go to the upstate area you can buy a nice place on a huge lot for a cool half mil.

You cannot buy an apartment unit, only the entire building.  You can, however, buy a condo, townhome, co-op, duplex, tri-plex, quad-plex, etc.  You should contact a Realtor to help you search for a place.  If you qualify, you should be able to get a loan that is 100% financed, meaning you will not have to put money down, but will still have to pay closing cost, unless you get the seller to pay some or all of them for you or you finance them by adding them to the sales price of the property.
