The objective- be prepared to jump on an opportunity3.

We find better deals on single family homes - probably because there are just so many more of them.Your objective should be to invest as little in each property and get as much return out of it as you can.  

A sewer pump would normally be an Owner responsibility from my experience.They sign an addendum that says repairs to the pump caused by inappropriate objects are billed to the tenant for $750.

I am a realtor whose sole objective is to negotiate contracts below appraised value, sellers market be dammed!

In FL, when a contract has been proffered, and the parties proceed with the work without objection to the proposed contract, they are considered to be operating under that contract even though it was not signed. 

@Lucas Gonzalez the first thing I recommend is narrowing down your objectives and criteria.

No you're right, there definitely are lower cost markets that would be drivable, but that is not the only objective.

With all respect, you plunked an unsuitable business operation down in a residential neighborhood, and then dare to complain about injured neighbors who object to a steady stream of strangers traipsing in and out next door to them?

The only reason to build as an outsider is to get that special property that you want where cost is no objective.

Objective:  See if you can find someone to potentially partner with.  5.
