Dante,There are some elaborate ways of de-duping a list in Excel, but a quick way is to use conditional formatting to highlight them, then you can manually delete them.

I'm not an expert, but the lease probably prohibits subletting rooms to tenants while you are leasing it.

But caveat.I would only do them under the following conditions.1. rehabber is personally known to me and is very very experinced2.

If you are buying several properties I would strongly urge you to go to the location and look for yourself to determine neighborhood and condition. 

Plus you need to see the comps from the MLS,if any from a good real estate agent to determine what the property is worth now and after you make repairs and improvements.Equity is determined by the amount of money owed to the bank and what another person is willing to pay for it today in " As Is" condition.Get a good contractor to walk the property with you to determined the current physical condition and what it would take to repair and decorate it to modern standards and bring it to its full After Repair Value.

It is listed in the MLS, though.We're going to see it tomorrow and make a cash offer of $70-85k depending on the condition of the interior.

Your maintenance/misc % will be entirely dependent on condition of the home.

I'd consider it a safe investment, if you can afford to hold for a while.That being said, your buy-in will be significantly (prohibitively) higher than most places in the US.

Is it OK to add this part in addendum.REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE: Tenant agrees to maintain the lawn, repair and/or replace any and all facilities related to the premises, to provide ordinary and customary preventive maintenance, and to maintain the building in good to excellent condition throughout the Term of this Agreement.

If it's in good good condition Id leave it if ur on a budget.
