Thanks,It looks like a nice cash flow type rental.Too bad it's operated so loosely.I suppose he will have to fix the electric now that it's become public.Old cloth covered arcing wire = a potential fire.I would not be surprised if he gets a ton of offers to buy the place now.A little more curb appeal and it would be a very "cute home".Just my 2 cents. 

It has good curb appeal and walkable to a cute downtown-we may convert to an airbnb.

It's a cute house, in a nice suburb, with good schools, and job growth so I want it to be a long-term hold.  

Without being too graphic, there were almost two weeks during my bathroom renovation when I had literally no bathroom.

"when it rains, it hurricanes"   as in it won't just be a cute single, expected problem, it will be about 4 big problems, 3 medium ones and a surprise vacancy of 2 units all within a month, something crazy like that and it's going to test your wallet!   

For instance, a letter on why you want to buy in the area, your love of the community, and maybe a few cute family pics.

With some TLC it would be a cute 600+ sq ft studio on a half-acre lot.

Our place is a cute little farm style house but nothing special no garage but definitely new and updated.

Yes in San Diego with lots of tourists you can increase the income if the units look cute in photos but the Underwriter won't give you the income boost.
