Fieldstone foundations with poorly maintained pointing - a super highway for rodents and a virtual waterfall for water intrusion.Mold/mildew as a result.Cedar post supports, which shrink a tiny bit per decade, but add up enough decades and your floors are out of level.Posts replaced with adjustable lally columns. 

I am teeny tiny compared to many other Las Vegas investors and am admittedly a little lazy so I am just exploring markets where I am able to make offers without financing contingencies.

Rents/price are basically the same as SFH (1% or so) and if it's a duplex you're only saving tiny bit in maintenance (roof).

While underwriting a potential acquisition I stay conservative an estimate $100-125/unit.Taxes: usually a known quantity by visiting the Escambia County’s or Santa Rosa County’s Property Appraisers site.Capital Expenses: I typically estimate these between 5-10% also.

I move to a tiny, tiny studio way out by LaGuardia airport that was super cheap.

Even tiny shacks around Mill Ave are 400K.

It's our primary residence, and we also rent out one of the rooms to a friend, so we're getting a tiny bit of landlord experience too. :)We're primarily interested in single and small multifamily homes to hold as rental properties.

On multi-million dollar listings, the standard is 5% split in 1/2 for each agent.As an investor who flips, I never pay more than 5% for even the $300k homes, but I give quantity so the agents agree to it.

Has anyone tried to put a tiny house on Airbnb?

this is super common so don't worry. yes, asking for money from friends/family or potential business partners is a fantastic idea, but doing so without credibility is going to be tough.i would suggest doing what they wrote above - wholesaling/birddoging/or even saving money until you can build a small bank roll, find a cheap property to flip first (mine was a tiny condo), use a hard money lender to help fund it, use your money to rehab it and HOPEFULLY, sell for a profit.
