After consulting my rabbit's foot and my lucky 8 ball, I have determined that you'll need half a million dollars to buy 5 duplexes in the next 5 years. :)

Comps are what they are, which COULD mean that prices of 1200sqft homes are $125-35k, and the price of $1400sqft homes may well show the same ratio per square foot.

It's 3 years old and is a modern, kind of fancy place that we paid a high price per square foot to get into.

S/He's probably already got one foot out the door and is just waiting for someone like you to come by and offer to buy it at a reduced rate; because after you pay contractors to bring it up to a good standard you still want to be within the FMV/ARV.For you, though, the biggest thing is vacancy rate and income.Nonetheless, if I were you I'd be happy to pay a wholesaler.

Costco has it currently at $1.50 per square foot after rebate and I have a lower end rental I'm turning over the next month and I'm considering putting this in instead of carpet.

In my opinion, Ohio has the best returns and is definitely advantageous for newbies looking to get their foot in the door.
