I started by building a 12-door portfolio using the BRRRR method and self-managing initially.

I do not worry much about "hurried or sloppy work" because it is also in my contract that all work must pass inspection, which may include the city / county (for permitted projects), lender and myself.

The city was due to come in the morning for reinspection, and the plumber was willing to go back prior to the inspection, but the tenant wouldn't answer my messages when asked if she'll be home.

I just want some outside eyes to help me understand if this deal is what I should expect to find as I build my portfolio.I plan to buy and hold long term.

Tenants should pay  utilities - they're consuming those and landlords should 'inspect' what they expect on a quarterly basis and that includes verifying that utilities are current.  

I just started as a real estate agent and I am looking to build connections with investors.

Market might be competitive but there is angles to stand out depending on what you are comfortable and able to handle, such as waiving an appraisal contingency, limitng inspection rights and time frames, closing time frames, allowing seller to stay-post closing, taking on difficult tenants, buying properties that might need repairs, etc.

Three out of the four units are section 8 CHA tenants, so the rent is on time each month, but we have to do an inspection every two years.What is the condition of the property you are looking at?
