I can't do central AC with no furnace, and wall mounted mini splits will look terrible.

Most enticing is it is located on a very well established street with a wall score of 92 - lots of restaurants, bars, shops and a park nearby.

In fact, we just closed a new buyer on a beautiful turn of the century duplex in Duluth allowing him to househack the upper level. 

3) Aside from washing the walls or getting a full repaint quoted, would it be reasonable to deduct the expected cost of "Kilz" paint/odor sealant brand for effected square footage?

Overflowing gutters, a leaking roof, or holes in the siding may lead to moisture entering the mobile home and problems/mold in the wall cavities.Worried you’ll miss something?

 Hey, This is a unique situation, I purchased my second property in June 2024, a single-family home that used to be a duplex, and is still zoned as a duplex ( remains 2 addresses).

A nice SFR (single family rental) brick home or perhaps a duplex but for your first purchase actually, wise to just stick with an SFR to keep it real simple.
