I would also weigh if you plan on staying in the home you are in now for a long time or move in the next 5 years.

They withheld rent for 3 months for this one (time it took to re-inspect).

The standard process is already long enough, add on the scope of things and that's some significant time.

But this time Trump has a trifecta!

I'm not trying to insult you, but the terms "36-Unit Multi-Family" and "First Time Investor" should not go together.

I have a potential private lender, but I need to determine if this is a viable investment opportunity and explore the best financing optionsYou’re a first time investor going for 36 units… alone?

They offer a $10K repair fund to fix damages in addition to SD plus warranty for appliance repair etc.I have no say in whom they choose to move in, whether there are animals, limit on # of occupants etc. they reserve right to inspect property so i have no idea if they can tell me to remodel, paint etc.does this make sense i have a vacancy coming up in October (bad rental timing).

I gave up time with the expectation that the buyer would be able to close sooner.

@Kobe Carr I am in no way an expert but I could definitely schedule some time to walk through them quickly.

Then again, curb appeal doesn't matter as much in the inner-city parts of my market - more so in the suburbs.Lastly, if a property is newly built/renovated, 'neutral' may not be the best route.
