I plan to call them up tomorrow (Monday) and see if they can come out to provide a free estimate ASAP.Also, I plan to ask the seller to provide us with any documentation from any previous roof maintenance and ask if she has any warranties for the roof already in place.Any other ideas/tips?

It’s other factors that are going to affect your score, like age of credit history, credit utilization, etc.  

Then you’re just looking at whatever documentation and state laws as to whether you need to provide 30/60 days notice of non-renewal, or that same time to either leave or sign this new lease.

You can obtain credit, criminal, and eviction reports and have your prospect pay for this directly as part of your approval process.I also recommend you do your own verification of tenant rental status and history directly with the previous landlord.I am a long-time satisfied customer of SmartMove, but I receive absolutely NO compensation for this referral.

Learning the history behind a concept, and why it was created vs what it has become today always helps me in my learning process.If there is ever any concept you are having trouble understanding, shoot me a message and I'll direct you towards a good resource for whatever it may be. 

Everything else has to be refreshed : Floors (carpeted, heavily spoiled and cat urine odor) Ceilings dry-wallWalls dry-wallElectrical is out of date (knot and tube all over, electrical panel needs replacement) Risks: Sanitization (cat urine smell, potential for pest problems)Structural integrity not checked (unable to check in a timely fashion due to deadline)Evidence of water damage on main floor ceiling, extent of damages unknownNo smell of mold in basement but knowing the city history of flooding, this is uncertainPlumbing looks recent but it was hard to be absolutely sure of this assertionThe reason I decided against in the end : too many unknowns.

The history shows that the property has been off and on the market for several years. 

Being self-employed and only three years of credit history makes it really hard to qualify for a mortgage.  2019 is finally going to be the year that I can afford one... because my last two years of tax returns show I've made enough money to get approved for a mortgage. 

This allows for infinite scaling as you grow to compartmentalize the liability from properties, but the “child” series LLC are private documents and can be established from your computer - it’s a fantastic tool.
