I would set a year built filter with your other criteria and see what it returns...remove the filter and see if the properties showing are something you can be comfortable with.It's more important to focus on the location and configuration of the property and opportunity for value add than focusing on year built.That said, older properties (if not updated) will always require more work to get stable due to inherent issues associated with the building style and materials...stone foundation, slate roof, balloon framing, ungrounded or unsafe electric, and possible abatement of hazardous materials...

Or you would find yourself managing a deteriorating asset.We found that judiciously sprinking in duplexs in various configurations with SFs helped up keep the quality of the subdivision up as a whole.2.

Overall this gives me data on 358 local zip codes that allow me to population trends over 10 years, home price trends over 20 years, and rental information for different configurations.

Hoping like many to become a real estate investor over time, but for the moment I had a question which I'm having a lot of trouble figuring out:What would be the best / most appropriate insurance configuration in this situation:- My wife is the title holder for a single family home- She does not live at the home - Her parents live at the home, rent free- Her brother pays the mortgage on the home and he plans to rent out two rooms in the house to long term tenants (strangers)- Her parents will continue to live in the rest of the home, rent free (this is fine, just putting it here in case it affects the insurance)- My wife and I are able to visit the home at any time and do so regularly to see her parentsAll I want to make sure is that we (my wife) are covered from all angles on insurance.

and of course depends on the basement configuration  and if you need to add egress windows et.. but 50k should dial one of those in. 

My attorney and CPA put their heads together and configured all this for me. 

Given that most homeowners don’t have spectrum analyzers or a certification in Wi-Fi design the most important factor to performance is not features or the latest standard, but rather ability to properly configure out of the box.

If it's on the MLS, and just sitting, it's likely that it's not a great deal... but maybe as you pointed out you could configure for student housing.  

The way the home is configured it doesn’t make sense as a SFH, and all MF construction has been large complexes.

Or is there some other configuration?
