Any other possitive factors  - stable tenant base  - alarm systems  - regular checks on the property  - no pets  - Lead safe certification  - newer roof, plumbing, electric, etc..Anything to balance off the lossesBe prepared that it may end up in a non-standard (surplus lines) market for a couple of years.If you did not have flood coverage before, see if they will continue the current policy if you get Flood coverage and increase the property coverage deductible. 

Capital expenses (a new roof, HVAC, etc), maintenance (clogged drain, water leak, etc), and for vacancy. 

The roofs were updated in 2021.All units are currently occupied on month-to-month leases, with three tenants paying $1,425 per month and one tenant paying $1,300 for handling lawn care and maintenance.

Hi there, I am running a business with property management, construction and investor focused agents all working under one roof. 

After that my contractor will be taking a look at the foundation and roof for me before i place any deposit.

Roofs are $10-15,000 for a typical duplex where I live.  

3. requiring heavy amount of rehab (siding, foundation, roof, HVAC, appliances)?

Common problems are sewage backups, mold, infestations of rats, and other pests, faulty wiring, roof leaks and it violates the city’s building, health and fire code poses health and safety risk.

Roofs and 'lesser' critical home hardware like HVAC, AC, plumbing and non functioning lighting and electrical. 

A great agent will also invest in home, pest, and roof inspections to remove doubt in a buyer's mind prior to making an offer.
