@Mohammed Rahman, interesting takes, I agree with you completely.

It is in spirit of settlement but also I agreed up to a price - so I paid that price. 

I agree with my property manager that this is a reasonable ratio, because the co-signer need to cover their own house spending as well.

Agree with the other guys. 4 units is best, you have more tenants and opportunity to increase rents if one or more tenants turn over. 

However, everything on the inspection report - Seller agreed to fixing.

When other responders quote and agree with what someone said, that is a good indicator that the forum agrees.

Without their signatures, the deal was in jeopardy.After some negotiation, her older sister agreed to sign, but she had one unusual condition: she wanted to keep the home’s vintage crystal doorknobs.

I spoke with the renters, we agreed to two adolescent children and two infants.
