We just sold a 3 unit to an investor friend, who at that close also got a discharge for a 12% mortgage on another property we sold him 10 yrs ago.

To that end, I made a Google sheets document with every hospital system in GA along with the following data:CityZip CodeRentometer 2/X   (what a 2 BR, any bath) goes for on Rentometer)RentRentometer 3/1+ Rent (what a # BR, 1.5+ bath) goes for on Rentometer)"Minutes to home"  (how far a drive it is for us)"Staffed Beds"  (measure of how big a hospital is)"Total Discharges" (a different measure of hospital size)"Patient Days"  (yet another different measure of hospital size)"Gross Patient Revenue ($000)" (you guessed it, hospital size)Map Searches & Housing Requests (this and everything below was from FF.com stats page)Furnishedfinder.com Page ViewsTotal RoomsPrivate Rooms % UnitsHotels% Whole Place > 2500 %Whole Place > 2k < 2.5k %Whole Place > 1.5k < 2k %Room > 1500 %Room > 1k < 1.5k Page view per roomThis allowed us to narrow our search to hospital systems near us (less than 2 hours) in a less competitive market (higher page views per room advertised on FF.com) with a significant % of units being rented on FF.com at higher rents (more $). 

The main issue with rental basement is water if it has water issue usually it is a simple fix .Clean gutters ,discharge gutter  water away 10" away from foundation, make sure you foundation soil is slopped away from it .If you need to buy soil get a clay mix .Cut back any tree too close to the foundation look at the drip line that's how far the limbs are out from the tree .If all that is done still has water buy a sump pump  carry the water to day light away from foundation 10" to 15" .

Also, how can you confirm that they are going to continue to be in the military for some time, and not going to get kicked out or discharged, or already has been?

Hey All - One of my tenants ran a load of laundry and forgot to put the disscharge hose in the utility sink for when the wash drains. Instead when the washer drained water went everyone. There was water in the utility...

Our model is basically 2 people to a room, each individual pays $175 a week, each house has a manager (who lives free of charge)that handles intakes, discharges, accountability, checking chores and collecting the rent.

I’m specifically looking for properties with potential that are priced under $200k.I had a Chapter 7 bankruptcy discharged approximately 2.6 years ago, so I’m currently eligible for FHA loans.

@Matthew Ford IRS tax liens can be negotiated through programs like Offer in Compromise, a payment plan, or requesting a lien discharge if selling the property.

Sorry I should point out you need to keep gutter discharge water away from the foundation  at least 10 ft .

Personally, I've seen tenants granted a continued occupancy/renewal of their lease for the following:(1) threatening other tenants/neighbors with physical harm(2) dealing drugs out of the apartment with children residing in the same building(3) discharging a firearm on the premises(4) refusing entry to the landlord/his agent for necessary repairsAnd I am sure there are many other examples of bad behavior that the property owner is powerless to react to.
