Not sure if the upstairs tenant (heavyset person with a dog) plays a role.Seeking suggestions.

@Joe Villeneuve @Theresa Harris, thanks a lot for taking the time and provide some info/ideas/suggestionsTo give you some color for these properties, there is a 15 years-plan that my wife and I are planning to have arround 5 to 7 properties in the same $$$ range (-+ $200K) that we can rent them around $1600-$1800I believe after 10 yrs, I am expecting to a better cash flow considering some loans will be paid in full, but maybe the next properties will have as you suggest 30 year-loan. 

There’s no shortage of properties that could benefit from your expertise, and using your team during slower periods is a smart way to build equity and maximize returns.If you’re considering your first project, I’d suggest looking at duplexes in Belton, MO.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

And I’d like to build the single family home and refinance with a dscr loan.would anyone have any advice on this or suggestions 

Thanks for the insight and suggestions Alan!

Alot of unknowns as you don't have the ability to walk the property beforehand, but interesting process, and pretty good deals exist there.While the Trustee Sales are cash purchases, there are many hard money options that can turn over the funds in time for the 24 hour funding required to complete the purchase.If you are interested, let me know and I can go into more detail, as well as make some other suggestions for you to consider. 

All the best, Steven  If you're going to do a partnership or even a joint venture agreement I would highly suggest using a competent lawyer to draft your business agreement.
