There is a single car garage built into the side of the duplex facing the neighbor’s driveway.

Here is the bottom line: most modern mortgages have a "Due on Sale" clause that would technically give the banks he right to accelerate the note and call it all due.  

Also check finished basements, garages, sheds, extra bedrooms and baths.

My friend knows a previous landlord who is selling a property that includes a side by side 5 plex, a 2 story house with a basement and 2 car garage, and 1977  16 x 70 moblie home that is current owners residence (on a permanent foundation, with a large addition, porch, deck & 2 car garage.

Need a referral for garage door repair...A friend in the western suburbs (Addison) has need of a garage door replacement.

I have gone and took a stroll around the house and gathered all I could and there is very very minimal work to be done (painted garage, replace front door) But the interior looks brand spanking new aside from the fire place.

I have also had numerous garbage disposals repaced, a dishwasher replaced, garage doors fixed, drains unclogged by the company.

Overall it's a nice looking place, but it's not super modern and high-end.

, the countertops would be replaced (not as important but definitely needed), painted, cleaned, tub would be tackled and re-caulked, the garage door would be fixed, and that would all get done before the move in date.

Now, the property has to be eligible for fannie mae financing, when you say a rehab loan are you just saying you want to modernize the house or is totally unlivable?
