If you start now you will get burned Good Luck 

I'm honestly feeling burned out.

@Timothy Burnes Don't do it. 10-20k in equity is not worth all those issues.Bed bugs are a significant defect that can take either $5000 and tenting the whole building for heat treatment, which requires vacating the tenants or getting them hotel rooms for a few nights, or a sustained program of prevention with bed risers, leg traps, sealed mattress bags, and the tenants need to keep it up for.. get ready for it.. 6 months, which is how long they can live without a meal.Sewage in the basement could be a big issue if you have a sewer backup problem.The sinking toilet sounds like it needs immediate attention, but at least that's a straightforward repair.The other issues are what I would consider "normal" as in, you could fix them but don't need to in order to make the place liveable.Based on the bed bugs alone I would avoid... if you are comfortable with this level of rehab you should be getting a way better deal.

Sounds like you have too little free time and are getting burned out.If that's the case, hire a PMC!

Even though I got hit hard, I still have a burning desire to invest in real estate and create wealth this way.  

I would imagine the small time landlords who got burned in this situation may want to sell if prices are still reasonably high which could lead to prices dropping sometime next year.

We got burned by too many owners when we put utilities in our company name.
