On the nose, I agree that this is certainly a deal traditionally reserved for a seasoned professional.

We’ve also done more loans with him.I’m always amazed at how some lenders are unwilling to cut anyone some slack but very willing to cut their nose off to spite their face.

I'm talking head down, nose to the grind stone, geek out sessions where we develop in depth and thorough spreadsheet checklists and systems for data organization.

Hi Kevon, what Allen said is true just keep your nose down and get some good rentals (1+% rule and around colleges,military bases and hospitals) and above all else take care of your tenants (very very important). 

If not addressed, it could lead to fracture in the tank and leaking effluent (worse case scenario).

They're not the straight A kids with their noses in the books and a drive (whether internal or from mom) to be on top but they're not the flunkies either. 

It is an opportunity to put eyes, ears and nose inside the property.

Hi Pretty,There is absolutely no way to know ahead of time if you will recover the cost 100% or even 1%.The choice might come down to how much you and your wife want to have this very desirable bathroom vs the one that is in there now.Getting your money back on it in a new-ish suburban home is just unknown upfront--I'd say this purchase is more of "Personal Desire" purchase than a hard nosed business purchase.Although it could turn out at sales time to being some added sale price...

New listings are low and not sticking around, driving prices further into nose bleed territory.
