If you are going for the bigger multi unit, you have to find "value add" type of projects.

My question is, I'm looking to purchase an multi-unit family deal w/ FHA Loan.

@Omar KhanThanks, if the right multi family in the right area comes up like a 3bed 2 bath for our unit, I may just jump on it if the numbers are right.

I'm looking at the Seattle area (I live here) to make my first multi family ( 2/3/4plex) purchase.

I thought I knew something about rehabbing then I started rehabbing 100 year old multi family buildings with tons of deferred maintenance lol.

I started with single family homes thinking that experience would help me invest in apartment buildings, but I eventually learned that you don’t need money or experience to start investing in apartment buildings and a single family track record wont help much.

I have recently acquired some multi-units and SFHs in the past 4 months and I would like to do some renovations to the properties. 

As I mentioned, if interested, I can share with you all the "paper trail" of our last flip - contracts, waivers, estimates, tracking, SOW, contractor packages, timesheets, etc. - stuff to help you in your rehab project.

I believe Expense because i was repairing the unit with the exact same thing it had when it broke.I am using Quicken to keep up with all the records and am trying to track these as tax items. 1) how do i track these "Schedule E/C" 2) when i have to drive, eat, and other stuff how is that tracked?
