The neighborhood is somewhat stable and our tenants have been mostly good, but undesirables are nearby and often visit the area.

You may expose come imperfections in the drywall, so you then have some mudding to do.I think one person can do 1000 sf a day.  

I don't know if they still existing, but I also have gotten 80/20 loans where you borrow both the down and the remaining balance, however, that is a slippery slope as you have to make sure (if you are keeping it as a rental) that you have sufficient cash flow after debt service.Clear as mud, right?

Sure you gotta know rents, taxes, local laws, etc. but a tenant in a lower asset class, undesirable location doesn't care about your spreadsheet rents or your taxes.

This has pushed up the values to the point where they don’t make sense for house hackers, or rendered the available options in undesirable locations for owner occupants.All this is about to change.

This is part of MUD, so wastewater treatment plan is also inside the community.I tried doing google but couldn't find anything useful, so wondering if having drip fields impact property prices?

Would it be a smart investment to go ahead and buy a duplex in a more undesirable area at the moment and fix it up. i know rent is much lower in those areas as well. seems to be more class c areas. i Am working with an amazing realtor but still wanted to get on here and hear other peoples feedback or advice.

Clear as mud?

When it comes to hard money for seasoned investors, it's the points that really makes those loans undesirable/unprofitable.
