Quick note: At this point I wouldn't use Brandon's percentage numbers for capEx, vacancy and repairs, otherwise the deal will scare you off.  

When discussing cash flow/month (not CoC) do you include maintenance repairs and vacancy in the calculation?

This includes marketing, negotiating, and estimating repair cost.

This work was done years before I even purchased the building, but I realize I'm on the hook for it.At the hearing, they did a "no suit" for all 11 items since they were repaired, and gave me a 150 day extension on the permit part.

Not sure of the terms etc, but I did tell him that he can work on repairing his credit and refinancing out of the owner finance loan down the road, so even if 30 years of payments he isn't bound to that one loan and rate.  

I enjoy fixing and repairing items, it saves money resources and it also allows me to look in on my units.

A good thing about the Primary residence is that if you had done repairs while doing some improvements to the house, you can add the repairs to the basis of the property too.

Two of the units are currently rented for $750 each, while the third unit is vacant and currently undergoing repairs.

If any of the utilities require an inspection or any repairs do to their inspection you are out of luck as HUD allows no repairs prior to closing .  

Though he was telling me it's impossible for him to give 100% accurate repair estimates without looking behind the walls.
