You should be prepared to have your unit pass a section 8 inspection.

If you can't afford the property with a vacant unit it's probably a bad idea.

Buying a 55-unit complex outside of Huntsville, AL.

When it is time replace your central heating and cooling system with split units.  10.  

We are currently renting a space in a strip mall and the landlord is willing to sell the unit to us.

We are considering finding a 3-4 unit, I would live in one unit with my girlfriend, he would live in another unit with his wife and we would rent out the rest.

I have the keys and have begun moving items into the unit, but am not yet occupying it.The landlord has now informed me that he would like to agree to some sort of buyout of the lease because he is having problems with the local municipality for fire and sprinkler approvals.

Looking back think rather buy stabilized units down there vs ones need remodeling due complexity of finding good contractors.  

You should check out CFRI, the local chapter of the National REIA.

I'm looking at an 1950s, 3br/1ba fixer upper that currently has window units.
