Owner is wanting to get rid of them all at once with the idea that it will be quicker and easier.

Need to look at the depreciation, the tenant has a faster schedule than an owner, look there as to who can write off expenses quicker and negotiate from there. 

If you have a quality replacement in the on-deck circle, you might decide quicker about whether to fire the current one. 

The longer you are in the game, the larger your network will be and the quicker you will be able to find deals.

I have no idea what the contractors cost is for a mound, so I hope I'm not expecting too much help without insulting him.That would pretty much pay for it, without completely draining the 5k reserve. (10k from bank plus the 4k from the roof)That would be a lot quicker that asking them to do it.

Might be quicker to just find the properties that are available and narrow my analysis to them. 

Cash for keys will probably be quicker.  

The more times you take a deep dive running the numbers getting experienced you can start using "paper napkin" numbers to make deal analysis easier/quicker.

Time flies by quicker than you would think.Congrats once again!

I'm learning to get things quicker now that I have a good spreadsheet process to input data.
