Multiple rental apartments under one roof are provided by multifamily buildings, such as duplexes, triplexes, or fourplexes.

I agree with Ken, get some costs and see if it's worth it but depending on how old the roofs are on your dwellings if you have a claim and replace the roof your rating might not really change. 

I would focus for a listing price > $600k so you have more "space" for higher price.Also that 80k I'm considering the roof is fine.

If the resident has issues with the quality of the housing such as a failing roof or HVAC issue we would advocate strongly on their behalf as well.

For example the contractor had to replace roof or do other repairs to make the property rentable and I spent 2 hours talking to the roofing company and plumber? 

But maybe you don't have to replace four roofs this year.

For example we often talk about 20 or 30 year roofs, but rare is it that I see one that is that old. 

Purchase price: $160,000 Cash invested: $265000Purchased this fixer upper that needed new roof, windows, siding, HVAC, updated electrical panel, all new decks and a big update inside.

She also does roofing as well.

It can serve two purposes, provide a roof over your head and still provide some income to OFFSET your LARGE MORTGAGE payment, since you are considering putting 5% down.
