I'd move the doorway entrance to the dining room as close to the wall behind the fireplace as possible and also move the entrance into the living room as close to fire place as possible (or eliminate it) This will minimize the impact of the doorways on the kitchen space. 

Is it a minimal deal to begin with and you can only make $2,000. 

I've been considering buying some C class properties around $100,000 or less with minimal repair that would also hopefully be close to the 1% rule. 

You will have minimal issues if you have experience in property management or real estate.

My other expenses are very minimal as I am being very frugal for the foreseeable future.I don't start working until late august but i am trying to start my real estate investing career as quickly as possible.

But, be sure you either hire a rockstar PM or take the time to learn the rental business really well yourself or you will learn a second expensive lesson.If not, my suggestion would be to drop the price aggressively to minimize your losses.

Since rents are lower they do minimal upkeep to the buildings.

Just to minimize time waisted of course. 

You might just use it as a single family to minimize losses because it seems like you have no good options

In all likely-hood you will loseYou can also take minimal risk and get very small returns like a CD paying 2%.The key is to find the sweet spot in the middle of those two with enough diversification to protect you from one bad decision.But back to your original question.
