On the other extreme, I had one tenant live in our condo for 10 years with only one maintenance request (amazingly, the place was still in excellent condition when she moved out).  

If you put on your projections to get rent from 6 units and find out that more than 4 are not allowed, it could make the deal go sour real fast if you've already bought it. 1000 per month for rent for 5 to 6 units seems extremely low.

I contacted Arch, but they really only do commercial work/ extremely high end. 

It's in a quiet town extremely close to Des Moines Metro and in a good school district.

Always do a background/credit check, call their last two landlords, collect a security deposit, have a formal lease, call their employer to verify income and to get an idea of how they perform at work and be extremely clear in your standards.

Understand that you don’t define the demand for your money; your market does.Randomly determining a maximum or minimum amount you will loan, from a message board, is not likely to satisfy your market.

I've been paper investing my whole life and have been pretty satisfied with my ROI over the years, but with that, I am now interested in getting into real estate. 

I figured I would get some resistance but this is a little more extreme than I’ve encountered before.

@Aram Hamidi newer than 1985 is going to be difficult to achieve in the extreme for that area, not to mention something that new that cash flows with you living in one of the units.
