Here are the properties that have interested me (not sure if either are section 8):Duplex built in 2002 consisting of 3/2 1050sq/ft each for $94,900Currently both units occupied with $670/month leases (not sure of the lease terms).New roof in 2015, new Central A/C units in 2013 and 2015.Outside looks good, inside looks clean with decent kitchens (basic L shaped) with laminate counters, tile floor in kitchens, what looks to be berber carpeting everywhere else.

@Kai Van LeuvenCouole thoughts on the pet policy.Yes it’s fairly standard to charge an additional security deposit ( as carpets will most likely require additional attention for pet hair).

i met a landlord who owns several rentals and is selling some of them.here's the numbers on oneasking 95k needs carpet replaced and 2k to get rent ready rents for 900-1000/moi want to make 2 offers one cash one termsthis will be my 1st terms offer and im anxious and I don't want to butcher it.

My primary residence has a unique feature in that it has come with a 20x40ft double-wide manufactured home in the backyard.Previous owner was using it as a shop but it has wood panel walls and beat to hell 50 year old carpet. 

I can paint, replace carpet and do minor repairs without a permit.

When they bought the building, during renovations they tore out carpeting, hepa vacuumed as much trace of any previous pets in buildings, removed and replaced subfloor where needed, ran hepa filters, painted walls, etc etc.

The home is settled like many older homes are and historically had carpet throughout on top of the old hardwood floor.

The carpet in the bedrooms were so bad we had to immediately pull it out along with the padding and floor tacks. 

We only hire out the bathroom remodels, as we have learned to paint, rip up old carpet, install Allure, change light fixtures and hang faux wood blinds.  

(water in the basement but French drain is installed) Everything else is painted and she has new carpet down.
