    Create a detailed business plan then do a joint venture with a local developer who has the techincal know how and access to the capital needed to cover all the hard/soft costs of the conversion. [ Edited by REALCHOICE on Date 08/20/2006 ]

    What will the post-conversion units be worth?

    Is there a local ordinance governing condo conversions (typically including notice provisions and waiting periods for the exisiting tenants.)

    Will your bank allow you to pay off less than all of the loan and give partial releases as you sell units?

    I disagree that you need a local developer, although it may be helpful. An attorney who has drafted condo declarations is more likely to be helpful.

    Hey Bargain,

    Are you going to manage it yourself? I know you have done plenty of flips to shake a stick at.

    With 10 years of management behind me, knowing the area and the rent rates before you get into the situation would be best to know.

    If you get a property management company to deal with, make sure other investors are using them. I learned the hard way. DO not just go through the Yellow Pages.[ Edited by joel on Date 08/04/2006 ]
