@Albert Gallucci as many have pointed out, in the commercial space of 100+ apartment buildings and offices, property classes have some pretty decent industry standards.We started applying these to 1-4 unit properties around 10 years ago, which you can verify on our blogs, because we saw too many newbie investors not properly taking into account things like, neighborhood status, tenant pool, property condition, etc.Unfortunately, there's no industry standard for this, but you can use some basic logic to think your way through your own Classifications.

From there if no one objects, the city will give you a conditional use permit.

I know you want to go full time and jump in, but I'd recommend staying with your day job as long as you can - it makes your life a lot more comfortable to have a steady stream of income to pay the bills every month!

I admire the rulers of Dubai for their vision and ability to put those into life.

You are a high w2 earner, The house is worth 110k today, you are buying from your grandma for 60k in exchange for free rent for life, upside ARV of 200k.The costs of owning the house will help provide tax relief on your high w2 earnings, you are buying a great chunk of equity that will pay off in the future, and you and your grandma are doing each other solids. 

Consider putting the property up for sale and get your life back on track, then try investing again.

Overall, Section 8 is a good way to get some pretty reliable income to get the property cash-flowing, provide additional experience, as well as with the required annual inspections, make sure your property stays in a good condition! 

The current rents are really low because the tenants are responsible for doing any and all repairs on their buildings (which in my opinion contributes to the poor condition of the buildings). 

It is a 1950-built cyclone fence in poor condition.

To avoid pitfalls, research liens, check property conditions, and set a max bid before buying.
