I'll be sure to check out all possible resources in the site.Anthony, thanks for the welcome.  

Every possibly good deal does go through our due diligence process.

My business partner had a deal within 2 weeks of deciding to be a REI, and learned on the fly, whereas I am the type to read, ask questions, and ease into it by knowing everything I possibly can first.

Mudjacking may be possible, re-level is possible, or they may have to remove, grade, and re-do it all.

In MY market I focus on making my rentals as easy as possible to maintain.

I am trying to start this endeavor after going to some classes and trying to learn as much as possible.

If you found the property management company and inherited the tenants from the previous owner (completely possible since you've owned it 9 months) it's harder to completely through your property manager under the bus.  

Going to try to keep this as brief as possible- I located a great deal: 25 units, NOI is 165K, contract price is $1,250,000.

I'm waiting on call backs from another 2 lenders in but I would much rather use referrals if possible rather than randomly calling lenders.  

My thought was to possibly purchase a multi-family unit (duplex, tri, or quad) so that I could live in one unit and take advantage of the 3.5% down payment requirement of an FHA loan.
