I feel like a deal in your home market will require you sinking your entire 80k into a deal that may or may not work out. 

Doors, sinks, labor, appliances, cabinets, countertops.There is nothing on here that will help you right now, it's just a way to get into analysis paralysis and not out into the field.What are you trying to accomplish with this?

The reality is the opposite - if it's not in writing then the PMC doesn't have to provide the service or can charge extra for it!

There was a lot of cash out there, which allowed buyers to sink it into deals.

The rate difference between FHA and Conventional is actually over 1% right now for Multi family propertiesCurrently the rate offered is 6.75% and 193/m in PMI (private mortgage insurance)That makes the payment with taxes and insurance roughly:$3453/monthTaxes were $3820, and insurance is $1800/yrCurrently this building can rent each 2 bed unit for up to $1800/m with tenants paying all utilities.All in cost to close is: $71,414.64If you rent both units for $1800/m you can expect gross cash flow of $147/mThis is the reality of buying a turn key duplex in the area using todays rates and prices.I want to stress, that this is actually considered a great property and deal in todays market for the areaYes, prices are high, and so area rates...My goal is to show what is actually going on.

Is cleaning up garbage, scrubbing toilets, fixing broken sinks, carpentry or any of those the highest & best use of your time?
