I'd really appreciate feedback with regard to whether I should move forward with investing in real estate, or to let the desire go for the time being: I'm 34-years old, married, have 2-children under the age of two, own a home, and have a stable and good paying job.

Age, size, etc.

Walk in a wallmart, notice the aged greeter, cashier etc.?

Recommend requesting the seller’s existing ALTA Survey, building plans & floor plans, site map, seller’s prior Phase 1 & environmental reports (easy for them to ask lender for copy), full rent roll detail (including renovated/classic unit indications by unit, sqfts, building #’s, full detail), aged receivables report (will allow you to identify hidden delinquency / bad debt yet to be reflected in T12’s), general ledgers / capex ledgers back at least 3 years to ID major capital projects or damage that wasn’t disclosed initially.
