If everyone stopped paying their rent in my portfolio (personal portfolio) I wouldn't last very long but the odds of all 30 units not paying are slim to none. 

I think the chances of the buyer winning the property are very slim, in our market here in NOVA even properties needing rehab are ending up in multiple offers and going over ask.   

Me and my mother were looking for a duplex to house hack, we got approved for up to 500k but my question is I know with slim inventory and more of a selection on Single family homes I wanted to know if we are able to purchase with a standard FHA loan on a Single Family with a good size lot and and say couple months down the road turn around get a Renovation loan on the ARV with an ADU on the property to rent out due to the New laws for ADU have taken place I figured this will be another avenue to explore than just a duplex to house hack?

Do you think 10k is too slim for 2000sqft?

On the other side of this, ARV’s of rehabbed properties are not increasing at the same pace, so the margins are getting very slim if you are a flipper.

I knew it was a slim chance the seller would be willing to come down that much anyway, but I didn't even have the chance. 

I'm looking at the Boise area where some half acre - 1+ acre parcels sit with time capsule older homes that declined while surrounding area developed.

Though the chances of that happening to both the carbon monoxide alarm AND 3 smoke alarms at the same time are slim, I will give you the benefit of the doubt rather than assume that they were deliberately removed.That said, I want to remind you of item 11 section 3 of our agreement, which states: Tenant shall replace furnace filter every 3 months and test smoke and carbon monoxide alarms monthly, replacing batteries (or informing Landlord of need for replacement alarm) whenever necessary.and item 21 section b, which states: No smoking of any kind is allowed anywhere in or on the premises, including in the yard/s, on the front stoop, in the garage, or in the driveway, etc.According to ORS 90.325, Tenant Responsibilities, section (2)(a), a tenant may not remove or tamper with a smoke alarm, smoke detector or carbon monoxide alarm as described in ORS 105.842 (Tampering with carbon monoxide alarm) or 479.300 (Removing or tampering with smoke alarm or smoke detector prohibited).

That is an awfully slim margin.

Slimming margins higher interest rates low inventory a challenging game
