I'm also hiring a cleaning crew to make sure when I turn the keys back in, the place is spotless.I've also gone to work for a very large firm that is very well known globally.

No major cracking or other warning signs that I could see, there are tenants safely living in the house, and the TISH was pretty clean (although it did mention the sloping floors). 

We’d need to clean up a room to do anything beyond that and she may not even want to stay anyway.

Even best case scenario your tenant is super clean, there is still wear and tear on everything that you will have to pay to keep up with.

Even I don't try to tackle some of those things (septic, some foundation issues, under-slab plumbing issues, etc).What I would recommend is that you include the cost of the inspections in your analysis/offer, assume that there are no issues with these things, and then re-negotiate if your inspection turns up issues.For example, to address the areas you mentioned:- Septic:  If the property is on septic, budget $500 for an inspection, pumping and cleaning of the system. - Foundation:  If there is absolutely any concern about foundation issues, budget $250 for an engineer to take a look and write a report.- Leaks Below Slab:  These are very uncommon, and would likely not be found by anyone on a casual inspection. 

Obviously speak to an attorney, but document all fees for cleaning, and take from the security deposit.  

Touch up paint, cleaning, bulb replacement, and basic things generally need to be finished.

Their credit should be clean enough now to buy.

I saw this mult-family pop-up and I am wondering just how bad it could be.My current goal is to clean up some personal finance, but I keep looking at properties to try and keep up with pricing.address:3225 Fordhaven Rd, Louisville, KY 40214There was another 4 unit on the same road as this one that came up for sale for around 180k.If someone is in the Louisville area, then maybe they can explain why this is either a great deal or a disaster.Note: I am not an agent and have not affiliation with the property above. 

It's likely that a stormwater pond system will need to be implemented to clean the stormwater before it works its way into the wetland.
