I can see the buyer coming back at you with a lower interest rate, otherwise it's reasonable.

Hence the reason you typically need to buy with cash or a hard money loan to acquire these properties.

The reason being is real estate is a people business, hence when you deal with people face to face you have a lot higher chance to make an impression on them.

They are called bed bugs, likely for a reason.

I've seen it on both sides where the landlord is just nit picking and is going way past reasonable deductions, and tenants that are so far out there that don't realize they are going to be charged when they leave dog poop on the carpet for the landlord to clean up.

I am practicing using the calculators and would love some input to see if I am reasonably close or if I am way off.

The reason is I know which lenders:do a good jobstay on top of the necessary tasksknow how to be creative within the rules (some people don't fit into the standard mold of a buyer, and some lenders don't know how to get them approved, and some lenders know how to get them approved)and which lenders can actually close deals.Another reason is, as someone like you who wants to house hack, not all lenders are experienced in it.

I need a good ready to hang solution.For this same reason (being 3000 miles away), it is difficult for me to match colors.

For this reason, I recommend tenants not only take pictures of the property before they move in but also after they move out. 

There is a reason there are so many properties for so cheap and nobody is buying them.
