If such is the case, the tenants in the lower flat will hear the tenants in the upper flat walking around, and kids running around upstairs can amp up that noise.If the flats have a common forced air furnace (or if there are two furnaces in a common basement or attic), muted conversations will make their way between the units.

@Agustin Conti personally if he wanted to rent a pressure washer to clean it, I would reimburse the cost but I wouldn't paint it.

If purchased with financing and the security interest represented by the UCC was timely perfected, I would have a completely different opinion.It is actually a loan, however, the panels are not attached to the property as is stated in the agreement:"Personal Property.

In my personal opinion location of the property is paramount at the moment. 

We own both a mortgage company and a real estate business, we do a ton of real estate investor deals, and, personally, my wife and I have flipped or built dozens of homes.

Even a hands off garage conversion ADU is significantly more costly than $100k.

A great way to network and meet people in your local community is to attend in person meet ups.
