Here's what I found for NY:"It is illegal for storage unit operators to seize your property without providing the following information: an itemized statement of the amount due. the description of the property being seized. the nature of the proposed sale, including the time and place."

Further, its now seen that 3 of the corrected lots were replatted as part of splitting a duplex and have different current legal descriptions than the original lot numbering and are still incorrect. 

Sounds like you want to be hands on and geographical proximity would be somewhat imperative.

After picking up a few rentals, it is time to purchase a flip.Also, if I find a property within a certain geographic area, I want to buy & hold.

@Patrick FlanaganIt is unclear from your description whether or not you have tenants in the other 3 units.

Note that a change can be anything such as pictures, description, price and status.

As a complete beginner, I would appreciate feedback from the community on things to consider when looking at this particular geographical area and when purchasing a multi-family home in the next 6 months in today's difficult and expensive market and yet still come ahead by lowering significantly the mortgage payments or even breaking even.

However, when I look at the property description there's a lot of missing information.

But when I got to the description, the owner said "no wholesalers".

@Jason DirksYou mentioned a handful of different investing plays in your description.
