It depends on what you're looking for, this past winter I was able to buy a foreclosed duplex and began renovations in the spring.

Depends on your target buyer. 

Cleaning between occupants will add up (depending on how long they're staying).

But my decision would also depend a lot on these three factors: the amount of rent I was receiving, the cost to remedy, and the extent to which the tenant is a pain. 

My property in 32205 has not been flooded since I purchased in 2014, but your mileage may vary depending on where exactly your place is.

Answer: It depends - If you live in a community property state (Texas, California, Washington, Arizona, Wisconsin, Nevada, Louisiana, Idaho and New Mexico), the answer is yes.

Depends on how will be doing all the leg work and putting up the financing. are you experienced or is the new partner bringing the experience. if you are putting financing and leg work then I will go with a higher %. if everything is split evenly then you can go 50/50 on profit. please create operating agreement to avoid issues later down the road.

You have aggressively dropped down your student debt, I say continue the progress and pay it off for you can potentially buy a bigger home (4 fam) owner occupied once you are done.Or if you are comfortable with debt you can make a bigger return investing and that can help you pay down your debt. if you are I will get a owner occupied 2-4 family with a seller concession (depending how competitive your area is) for you won't have a high closing cost.

@Dustin Hood yes at closing I was given credit from the seller, it just depends on what time of the year we closed.

Depends on the contract.
