And it has 2 bathrooms on the main floor.

I agree about getting into an existing property to learn the ropes before jumping into a development, which I am planning to do early this year.Colin- yes I am very familiar with Jonathan Segal's work- he is one of the main reasons I started thinking about real estate development and being my own client.

when I had low income/section 8 rentals the main thing is keeping costs down.

I doubt you could predict failure of a structural component within a year.What I can see is a product in the making to sell to small RE investors convincing them they can rely on a computer system to build a maintenance plan on and save money using it.Some things can be predicted with relevant data, you don't have relevant data.Data mining from key words is older than most probably think.

My target area at the time is mainly "ARKANSAS", although, I do a few other states.

I would much rather have rentals outside of an HOA, as these add additional costs and limit your flexibility with the property (have to send any exterior decisions to a committee, sometimes cannot rent OR can have ability to rent revoked by committee vote).Aside from that, the main things I see are 40K for 1 property grossing $675/mo or 2 properties for 45K grossing $1000/mo.

Its safe to say that I live in a cheaper area of the state.This particular place is not in a bad neighborhood and is acctually just barely outside the main part of the city, less than 2 miles.

Then I mentally walk the broker through the main parts of the house and I take notes.

There is a main building with 5-6 bedrooms.
