However, prices around all the colleges are steep, so you'll need to search for something on the outskirts of where students live.

So I'm not going to do full inspection, just walk each unit and maybe get a roof inspection.My questions are:1.

You don't want to pay for a surprise 10-20k roof or 4k water heater out of pocket.

That should set you back about $100 and will provide accurate information on the age and estimated useful remaining life of the roof, plumbing, electrics and HVAC.

Bank turned off electric, sump pump couldn't work, flooded basement, and caused mold in house, had to gut all walls, ceiling, insulation, baths, kitchen, floor covering, everything to the studs, and needed new roof, new electric, new heating and most of new plumbingOther than that it was a slow year! 

These seem like a gold mind to me in terms of cash flow, but I see several of them in seemingly good condition languishing on the market for months when more traditional homes in the city are under contract within days.For example, here's one such house I'm looking at that is very common around here:Asking price: $52,000908 sq ft, 2 BR, 1 bathNo garage, small lot, siding/roof are <3 years old and mechanicals are <6 years old. 

I have called a few companies but they will not go and set traps in the attic, they will only set them outside on the roof.

Big risk, big potential reward if purchased and managed properly - and if you're comfortable long distance fully managed I have a couple in mind, pm me.If only based upon your 2 options, I'd go with the MF - less capex with a single roof, single exterior, etc. than going with 8 turnkeys @ who knows what class.

I also joined another site this week that suppose to have privet money when I hit the get finance button I got a finance co and was looking at 11% and 3 1/2 points and minimum loan is 75,000 project I'm looking at right now don't need that much 45k to get the property  since have to do sight unseen its a re-po out side looks good lawn is still kept and siding is in great shape and roof is newer over sized garage in back yard is only a few years old so not expecting more than 15 to 20k on the rehab so looking at 65k for the whole project it last appraised at 133,833 last sold in 2001 at 80k  figured to list for 90k when done he asked why I would work on that low end of a project?  

FEMA will have contractors come in and lay tarp on the roofs of the houses not damaged as much so they won't get worse.
