I would consider staying with your parents and investing in another market that stretches your dollar and covers the cost of a professional property manager.

Kit showers or tiling, or tiling the shower (hot mop or tub shower then tile the rest) all are different3) what is the cost to renew the floor with a LVP?

What I wrote above does not create an attorney/client relationship between us.

Or maybe the units aren't equal and one rents for $2800 covering most of the cost of living there. 

I remember years ago our attorney reviewing one such issue for a client that was coming over to us. 

Can try to reposition to Class B, but neighborhood may impede these efforts.Vacancy Est: Historically 10%, but 15-20% should be used to also cover tenant nonpayment, eviction costs & damages.Tenant Pool: majority will have FICO scores of 560-620 (approaching 22% probability of default), many blemishes, but should have no evictions in last 2 years.

I had a couple clients lock in just recently at 7.1% on 10-30 unit deals.

Risky for your client and they rarely work out.

EDUCATE YOURSELF - yes, it will take time, but will lead to a selection that better meets your expectations & avoids potentially costly surprises!

For cash-on-cash evaluation of rental properties, it is critical to identify ALL of  your acquisition costs.
