Being in a historic district will probably be the draw, and prospective tenants might be looking for something with character instead of a cookie-cutter rental unit.Choose paint colors that work with the trim, floors, cabinetry, etc.  

An experienced attorney will tear through a cookie cutter LLC like tissue paper.

I buy mostly in cookie cutter communities with plenty of comps, so all my refis appraised at fair market value; I recently had a $187k purchase appraise at $340k.
