I have two meetings with two different mortgage brokers and I plan on calling more if everything doesn't pan out.Now as I drive my car, I begin to coach myself out of moving forward.

Pots and pans for $1 each.

Here are some that I'm aware of:- Galvanized pipes - typically 40-50 useful life, could rust from the inside out, could get eventual pipe failure- Zinsco or Fed Pacific electric panels w/ aluminum wiring that could be a major fire hazard- Wiring in general (e.g. knob and tube)- Asbestos in the walls- Lead paint- Heating system - boiler?

I have a 40 year old upstairs shower pan that has leaked for apparantly a long time.

I should add this location is 20 miles from the redwoods area and national parks on the coast of CA (they are all over my golf course) 1/2 mile from the Eel River for fishing, and 7 miles from the Pacific Ocean.

This is my introduction, so if I sound like minded or we likely could be useful to each other, please send a colleague request - especially Pacific Northwest BeePers (can we make that a thing?).

Also surprised that Shaker Heights yield play has not panned out either.  

My tenants don't want to loose the free government money so they have taken very good care of my houses.Make sure your lease covers silly things like the tenant being responsible for stove drip pans and any damage the cause.John

There will be issues along the way however if the numbers pan out this will  be the cheapest and quickest way to build multifamily. 

It's super inconvenient to only be able to cook with one pan at a time.
