]]> Comment on Getting ready for the Phoenix Light Rail. by Spike D Punch http://arizonaapartmentinvestor.com/2008/06/15/getting-ready-for-the-phoenix-light-rail/#comment-1373 Spike D Punch Thu, 10 Sep 2009 20:10:47 +0000 http://ciesielski.realty-buzz.com/2008/06/15/getting-ready-for-the-phoenix-light-rail/#comment-1373 Reliable public tranist is also good for business. It allows tourists to get around without having to rent a car and spend money in shops, restaurants and hotels. It also moves workers around quickly and efficiently so businesses can staff up when needed and lower-income workers don't need to buy a car to get to work. Look at all the places connected by light rail--Tempe and downtown Phoenix ASU campuses, numerous office, apartment and condo buildings, hospitals, the downtown arenas, the convention center, Spectrum mall, downtown Phoenix and downtown Tempe, Gateway College, the Technical College in Mesa, Papago Park, Tempe Town Lake, Indian School Park, Sky Harbor Airport (with shuttle buses), and many more I can't think of right now. I heard the busiest station is the one at Sycamore Street in Mesa, which connects to several bus lines and has parking for 800 cars in a lot adjacent to the station. These people are going to work and to school, and the rest of us who drive have an easier time of it on less-crowded streets. Eventually, the system will be extended to connect Metro Center Mall, downtown Mesa, Chandler Mall, and eventually north Phoenix and Scottsdale. I may not ride it often, or at all, but it is a fabulous amenity for tourists, workers and students, and more of us with cars will ride it when gas prices again hit the roof.

Vacancy Rates in Greater Phoenix by Artur Ciesielski http://arizonaapartmentinvestor.com/2008/10/02/where-have-all-the-tenants-gone-vacancy-rates-in-greater-phoenix/#comment-1348 Artur Ciesielski Sat, 15 Aug 2009 00:08:55 +0000 http://ciesielski.realty-buzz.com/2008/10/02/where-have-all-the-tenants-gone-vacancy-rates-in-greater-phoenix/#comment-1348 @tom, Roughly yes, but the situation has improved. Physical vacancy is down, but only because prices have been adjusted to compete better with single family homes plus the pool of renters has increased. @tom,

]]> Comment on Investing In Small Multifamily Cannot Be Done Well Long Distance Unless… by suzanne http://arizonaapartmentinvestor.com/2009/05/08/investing-in-small-multifamily-cannot-be-done-well-long-distance-unless/#comment-1097 suzanne Sat, 06 Jun 2009 14:02:59 +0000 http://ciesielski.realty-buzz.com/?p=114#comment-1097 Dear Artur: Eventually, within the next 5 years we will be investing in these types of property, most likely out of state (we live in CA)- ridiculous prices here, even for foreclosures. My family has owned apt buildings for years, I know the stress of tenants and management. I appreciate your blog and your ideas. I am looking to buy and manage properties where I can easily drive or pickup a cheap flight to check on the property. You are correct, you need a good maintenance person and relations within the town to keep the properties up. Tenants deserve nice properties, Landlords deserve tenants that take care of the place and pay rent. Thanks for the blog - love it. Dear Artur:
