I initially hoped to ask the seller for a credit to fix however I am hearing that the amt of credit you can ask the seller is limited by the closings costs amount (in my case max it will be $12K) so I am not sure what to do.I am aware of the 203K option, but I am not sure I want to go that route as I am comfortable with my plans for down payment and monthly expenses currently.

The next thing they are going to tell me is mortgage interest on business property is limited to $750,000 just like the personal itemized deduction for principal residence indebtedness. 

I am willing to help out however I can (with my limited knowledge) so that I can add what ever value possible to learn and grow in real estate investing.

The pro of that is that they're in limited supply and they should be scooped up before they're too hard to find. 

Both Buyer and Seller to cooperate with each other's 1031 exchange, if applicable, at no cost or delay to either party".

The sky is really the limit. 

While it doesn't matter with this acquisition, I am going to hit the 10-unit limit, at which point I'll need to come up with a solution.

It may be better to wait for a 1 person applicant?
