Im sure you could... but might be as much work as doing it yourself though I have seen 3 story row houses have the bricks re-pointed with scaffolding and you could always rent a cherry picker truck... if it was on the first floor would the cracks be something you would just have the regular maintance guy take care of?

If they pay on time and take care of the property and don't cause issues for you then whats the problem right?

The intention for the property is a primary residence for myself and my parents first - so we will at least be splitting the lot in 2  (which will allow a house and guest house on each lot), but also carefully considering splitting into 3 or the cottage court possibility.

Take Care      

@Jason DiClemente I think you're being too generous about  them not caring about personal DTI. as a first multi and not much history, personal financials will be an important factor)-credit score doesn't get whacked too bad after your credit utilization goes way up-have 6 months of reserves, and maybe more -property is profitable to support both debt servicesthen you can probably knock this out.

Just don't forget the true acronym for BRRRR which is BRRSROPS R (if you care to again).S is for seasoning. 

- be very careful to assume you will be able to raise rents.

The only maintenance that I can see it requiring is lawn care and pool maintenance.

Be careful.

@chris martin  @larry t Ok this for me is a clear lessoned learned before i reach out and look to ask for help i have to be extreamly clear with what i am asking for or looking for so yes i am a contractor and i do make good money i wasnt trying to boast or try to make my self look like something im not either i realize now i didnt express my self clearly and i appologize for that because clearly some people are taking what i explained wrong  I may be coming off the wrong way but that is clearly not my intention how ever all i was looking for was a good hard money lender in my area thats all nothing more nothing less this deal is an off market deal she brought to my attention And what I consider to be a smoking hot deal others may not feel the same way because you may be more seasoned than me and  you may consider a smoking hot deal a 2 million dollar deal So this is all about a matter of perspective and experience also fellas im not claiming in any way what so ever to be a seasoned vet when it comes to investing either and from what i have learned its alot better and smarter to invest with someone elses money and partner up with someone who knows more then me so that i can get to a place where deals look better from a different perspective plus if the investment is right of course do it and if it makes sence  then great move forward and if not then be smart and pull away its all common sence and i do realize this there will always be a deal out there
