and if the property is 3 units, but i am doing a large reno on only one unit, can i get away with just making that specific unit lead free or would i have to make the entire 3 units  lead free in order to qualify for lead free at that address?

My advice for pulling the trigger on your first property is based on my own experience years ago...focus on action over perfection. 

In a perfect world, PMCs would be able to track exactly how much time their staff spent working for an owner and then charge based upon those hours & an hourly rate.Pretty sure most owners would end up paying more if this was could be done.

Indianapolis, where I work, has a strong build-to-rent duplex market that’s perfect for investors looking for a mix of solid cash flow and appreciation.

That makes perfect sense.

I had a perfect Tennant paid on time every month for one year.Lost his job at the end of 2015.

Best of luck, but please try to be open minded about people that may be different than yourself.A perfectly able-looking person could be the most destructive of anyone.  

You have enough money to furnish a property *fully*, and (this is vital) you have enough money to hold in reserves if/when things don't go perfectly, but you don't have enough to put down a 20-25% down payment to own.

Keep in mind that even if you do everything perfectly there are variables that may come up.

I quickly made an account because my partner got tired of me asking her to post questions.My question is: Currently, we are not required to build to ADA standards, but our unit is perfectly set up to be ADA accessible.
