The previous owner who was planning to make a pet hospital had some of the drawings and plan done on this old building.The previous owner also had no plans for addition or extension of the existing building since it requires zoning of a plot which is more time consuming process based on the feedback I received from county and a couple of civil engineering firms that I reached out to.I was provided the following list for civil engineering work.Pre-construction phase1.

Even if the rental has a decent cash flow with additional flood insurance, we're still not sure we want to take on that risk as we are out-of-state investors (planning to move back to KY in the future, but not now) and we don't like that it will potentially bring down the perceived value when we try to sell it in the future.The seller has never lived there and has not provided any information on if it has flooded before or not. 

If you sell your only overachiever to go with a more leveraged position, you could have 2-3 properties that may cover themselves or even provide a little profit, but when the rental markets shift (and they do), now you have 2-3 properties that all require you to supplement for their shortages.
