Happy to jump on a call sometime and talk through these things and perhaps help narrow it down.

The appraisal stated one was an office, another was a den and the 3rd was I think called a daylight room. 

My local code enforcement officer is happy to take calls. 

PM me if you want to jump on a call.

The expert you are looking for is called a Land Surveyor, they're going to want 5k-15k, if you want to make any money on your project you need to build a house so you also need an architect, they will want 10k-50k, if you're in a hillside zone you will also need a geologist, they're going to want 10k, you will also need a biologist, they're going to want 2k-5k.

My method has always been to call every listing that hit 90 days on market in areas that I want to buy.

Looks like there is one program that has not closed yet in Ohio, maybe not the right county, but I would call anyway, they typically know who else could help.https://nlihc.org/rental-assistance?

hihi :) Thanks for your thoughts Jaycee, Not sure I would call it a cash cow but I did think it was providing a opportunity.

Let’s look at the data.How many mailers, calls, or texts do you need to send to land a single deal?

You can buy lists and cold call them.
