My LLC (partnership) does buy & hold, but I want to do the occasional flip. 

We have a 1/1 so it's sufficient since we usually only have 1 guest at a time, occasionally 2.

I have a finished basement in one property which has occasional moisture. 

i think compared to other parts of the country we also don't have the attics and basements to do the value add deals like the NE and maybe CA.With all that said, we do see occasionally some decent multi family deals. 

If executing a cheap and fast eviction occasionally is critical to your business plan, I’d say rethink that business plan.

When I questioned it , seller stated that there was a satellite dish that was screwed on to the roof and that it could've created a hole were water is leaking through "allegedly" Should I be concerned ?

We'd buy it as a STR--that we could occasionally visit--but mainly STR it.

Additionally, I am occasionally out of the country for 2 weeks to 3 months.

Oh, and I guess c) I like to occasionally take my young son with me to check up on job sites so there is that too.Some good tips though, and I agree, sometimes it's worth just doing it yourself because of the turn around time and potential loss of rental revenue.

One type of coach is a "group" or "community" where active investors are meeting and occasionally you find people who can answer your questions.
