@Brandon PennI dont know what docket sheets are, how to check them or what inform I need to check them.Is there a sheet I print out from somewhere and have them fill it out, than I look it up on some website?

The parking lot might have had a re-coat and seal to help with cracking but once it gets so much deterioration the parking lot needs to be milled down and redone.New roof and parking lot that size of a building can be hundreds of thousands of dollars to replace.

Also have had very old copper plumbing joints fall apart especially if they used the thin gauge Cu pipe.Basically the kid using the shutoff that caused the break was proactive to say the least in identifying a problem you would have had later if you ever had to use the shutoffs yourself.But we were lucky when the same kid decided to use the wrong sized screws for the new sub flooring....

I can make an email intro if you send me a PM.Homes built before 1960 - Cash flow killers in these homes is plumbing not being fully converted to copper and breaks in sewer lines. 

That I have to talk to a Foreclosure attorney in order to talk about possible re-instatement, payoff, and how much down to penny to bring currentAt this point, is it even worth it to continue to purchase this property? 

There will be many people that tell you not to invest until every penny is paid off.

Later on, you could seal it in with Kilz and then paint a coat of normal latex paint on top.

First coat of paint is on.

For the other two, a fresh coat of paint and cleaning the carpets can do wonders. 

I pay 10% of rent in St Louis no matter the number of properties but my manager is full service and worth every penny.
