Just wanted to say thank you to everyone on here who has helped answer my questions and address my concerns along the way.

Anyways before closing I addressed all of these concerns with the seller and was presented with a signed and dated termination / notice to vacate from the problem tenant agreeing to be gone before or on March 31st, today.  

But in general, I am wondering the best method to contact this landlord/property owner so as to get their attention and really help them see that my purchasing this property from them would be taking a headache off their hands.

I've seen some wholesalers say that they are consistently getting deals on the MLS- their method involves making LOTS of lowball offers.

With short term gains in mind, I am concerned about the tax consequences.

Most rehab deals need to be all cash which puts an offer with conventional financing at the back of the line as far as sellers are concerned. 

I have looked at comps (Versailles, Strata, P&P, and so on) which are "filled" and generating the rents I would like, however I am concerned that the "A Type" market I am shooting for is extremely limited, and could be eliminated should Allentown start swinging back the other direction.

I've found a few BRRR candidates but realitors I've spoken to so far while nice and helpful don't seem very knowledgable for this method I want to do single family homes using the BRRR method.

@Jay Hinrichs Thanks for the tip...What methods would you suggest would help me with those skills before actually doing it in real time?
