My concern is that with COVID changes are more students studying remotely and drying up the market for student housing?

I think that the market for short term rentals up here in the summer is great but in the winter it mostly dries up.

While I hope to purchase it, even if I don't this will be a good dry run.

Especially if they are dried first before you install them.

The only way the sale wouldn't go down would be if there some obvious contamination which there isn't, or a bad cleanup job which could be fixed; the offer's pretty cut and dry in that regard, and I know others who have gone through the process with no issues (none of them sold a residence, they were just holding raw land). 

Curious what the community says/thinks when they see signs of termites and wood subfloor rotting.

They're kinda the sweet spot of "already insulated, have ductwork for heat if not AC, windows are not completely failing and rotting out the house" for me, and they're the most available MFHs in where I invest. 

Dry-cleaners of course can pose a significant contamination issue with a property, but would a regular self-serve laundromat have similar contamination potential?

For joists you are looking for anything with dry rot, bowing/splits in them, or sistered joists (shorter joist screwed/nailed into the other for support).

We've come across some items that will require repairs such as: Wood rot, couple places but especially one of the outside window frames, needs to be repaired ASAPMold Removal in the Attic, seemed to have a significant amount in thereRadon mitigation, it was 4.4 which the action level is 4.0 Pci/LWe have one water heater not functional and another one that may need replacing soonRepointing some of the foundation, there are cracks along the edges, especially near the gutter systems so we would like to get that fixedIf anyone has any general advice/recommendations on any of the items or if there are contractors that are willing to give estimates, we greatly appreciate it!
