I initially offered the assessed value on the tax assessor's website..

So that initially gave me concerns that his CPA does not have his best interest in mind!

I took the 63 hour initial course and the 45 post licensing course online and finished it in a few hours. 

The places that have better initial cash flow are unlikely to have this rate of appreciation. 

When trying to initially analyze small multifamily properties (2 to 4 units) listed on the MLS in different markets, can one reach out directly to the seller's agent to get basic rent roll, expenses, and recent CAPEX improvement information to do an initial analysis of the numbers and asking price?

Initially I planned on refinancing these into a conventional loan after a few years but with interest rates being so loan now and I anticipate they will be high by next year I'm not sure if that will work.

Initially I was not concerned as we were working on the house and having a car parked in front gave the place a "lived" in look implying the house was not vacant. 

With this initiative, is there any incentive whatsoever in buying distressed assets and fixing them, only to not be able to raise rent to market, unless you appeal to some ambiguous exception? 

The township charges an $800 initial rental registration fee, and then every year a $120 renewal fee and a $100 inspection fee.

What happens to the initial loan?
