It appears the units are below market, however with some cosmetic repairs and perhaps some capex's I feel I could increase the rent by at minimum (based on local comps) 68%.I would offer 85% of list and estimated $20,000 in repairs/upgrades (this is probably a generous estimate - the property appears to be in good shape, basically needs a face lift).With all these figures, including the 50% rule, financing with 20% down @ 3.5%, I come out to a profit of $262 per unit and a cash-on-cash return of 9.53%.So, does this seems reasonable?

Has the seller received any notice of foreclosure, if so you need to head the other way if you can't buy it, this is full of new foreclosure landmines, if no notice has been given then you can proceed on the creative side.If you are acting as an investor, you can do an installment contract, as a real estate dealer selling to a consumer, buyer tenant, you'll have federal laws to comply with, pretty hard to do now.However, I'm more concerned with, what appears to be, the  intent of avoiding the mortgage requirements.
