Is the layout still good or are you moving lots of walls? 

I would assume that there are sound proofing updates that you would be able to do such as windows, walls, etc.

Right, @Karla Garcia but the trick in rehabbing is that you may think you know what needs to be done and how much it's going to cost until you start the process and then you knock down a wall and realize the whole house needs to be gutted!

Cats can be great, or they can do incredible amounts of damage.You must either increase your damage deposit, or charge a hefty non-refundable fee.

They can't let the animal annoy the neighbors by barking all day, urinate on the walls, or chew up the window sills.

Unless y'all have an incredible W2 to help with the purchase, you will not find something that "works" in the Triangle and in a good/safe location.

If I change things (new sleeper sofa, new pictures on walls, different bedroom furniture) I change my pictures

Anything that involves a load bearing wall will generally need an architect IME, but it can also be required (maybe indirectly) through the jurisdiction's building code/enforcement.Got it, thank you for lending your expertise!
