Ok.. the Slum Lord part of the title is a joke. That's howhe refers to himself. He does have a few ummm 'lower rent' properties inland, but that's not all he's about at all.
Cooper also has some fairly nice yet affordable apartment buildings, at least one of which is on the barrier island just a block off the ocean in the heart of Lauderdale Beach proper. His apartments in that building start at about $650 per month. No, it is not a dive.
So, what you need to know about dealing with Cooper is that he isn't just a money hound. He deals straight up and expects you too. Be honest and upfront with him and he'll deal with you above board.
PROS: Honest, straight shooter
CONS: Only if you screw him around.. heh
