I find that areas in my desired markets zoned for 2-4 flats are being driven up by first-time home buyers looking to be saavy and "house hack".I love the idea, definitely a fan of the theory!!

However, if they refuse to sign the addendum to the lease (assuming the new conditions are reasonable), they are not desirable tenants for you to keep. 

For most counties, that will take you to a site where you can do property record searches.

Because of your credit score and desire to borrow additional money for repairs/renovations you would want to use an FHA 203k loan, as you already know.

He also feels that I went behind his back by talking to the realtors and searching the numbers. 

Go to your county website and search for information on tax sale or property taxes.

I search, but Am finding discrepancies from site to site.

Search Yelp for PM companies, and hire the best one ASAP!

Hi Christopher I am not from the area so I cannot provide you with a reference, but my suggestion if you are not getting feedback is to just Google search real estate attorneys in your area and start asking questions.

Clearly you do not have any desire to manage your property so cross your fingers and wait to see what she does next.
