If all the systems and mechanicals are old the repairs will eat up any expected returns for years if things go perfect with your tenants.The key question is if the previous owner did a lot of deferred maintenance and kept hoarding cash instead.The HOA doesn't mean anything.They can go defunct or increase the dues or add special assessments.I like to keep control of my investments so do not like deals like this where you are betting on an external party to maintain your property.
