I really don’t want the seller to just walk away because the U&O is too difficult (I also went through this process about a month ago with another home.)Should I call offer some advice/contractors number to hire to get it fixed up, go get a lawyer involved, or do I have other options?

This is a really tough question to answer because there's no specific area involved.

I can see the advantages of being able to get a down payment to reinvest in a small MFR and I will be able to capitalize on my lower interest for some positive cash flow.All of the disadvantages I can think of involve some upfront investment for legal advice and work, time for further education and that's about it.Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.Thanks all!

Understand the fees involved and calculate the total cost for an entire year of management so you can compare the different managers.

I look forward to getting more involved with this community!

If you have multiple properties in a specific state you really should have an attorney draft your lease agreements and start to understand the laws or get a property manager involved to advise on these situations.

Definitely get a title company/closing attorney involved.
