@David Faulkner @Jd Martinthe neighborhood I'm looking at the price varies from one side of the town to the other.

1-4 is single family and the loan process is the same, be it a single family detached or single family attached. 2-4, rents may be included with your qualifying ratios if units are leased and you have experience, that will vary by the lender. 

Though it varies by locality, it is pretty general that you need to obtain a permit for most things in a renovation.  

People come from different backgrounds and have varying levels of experience that separate them from the herd.

TIAI will be doing one deal at a time, but I have a few options to choose from with varied price ranges.

And the hardness of pines varies...

I am asking for the details to make sure the information I have is correct, I don't want to waste your time or my clients by having the wrong information""The offer price with vary greatly on the condition.  

Especially considering that if I bought that house with 5% down and a 5% interest rate, my PITI would only be $2,850... which kinda makes you wonder why someone would rent it for $1,000+ more in the first place.Average/Median home values vary from city to city too, all over the state.

I have been scouting around on varies MLS portals for a duplex or some other multi-family home that I can start on.

Also, yes the building department will have the varied information on the lots but they may not do the work for you.
