@Lee Haenschen If your looking for a buy and hold play to immediately replace your income you may be looking at the wrong strategy. 

I would stay far away from Fayetteville if you're playing the long game

Another less reliable way is to play with the sold filter on Zillow or another 3rd party service.

I play “Two strikes your out” first offense a written warning by certified mail.

If you have a good relationship with someone, you can get a 9% loan, if not it can range from 10% to 18% and points can be in play. 

I think the wall units look cleaner but were not sure if they were as effective as the baseboard).On top of that was wondering if you would recommend the hydronic baseboard units or the standard convection heaters.I also noted your in NY are you using these to solely heat a house or as supplemental and do you feel they could adequately provide heat to a house in the NE during the dead of winter.

If they are the owners I play dumb.  

Yes, all 3 of original owners dead, we had a closing, guy of about 55 years dies suddenly 2 weeks later.  

At some point you've just got to play the hand your dealt.

There's a how to do it element that comes into play to significantly reduce the risk of an out of state investor having a bad experience.
