I have heard people say they placed ads for their potential rental to see how much interest they could generate.

I have raised rents on 3/4 of the units, brought an old laundry room back to life, and added storage sheds on the property for additional income.

The buyer pays the brokers fees and get added to the title.

I'd go 8-10% for the added buffer.

You two will negotiate who pays for this 2nd appraisal.Seller doesn't budge & you pay the original price & bring in the difference in cash to be added onto your down payment.Seller doesn't budge & you walk away from the deal.2.

Any work you do to it before it's placed 'in service' will be added to your cost basis. 

I'm not sure I added value.

That way for little money, you can greatly improve the curb appeal of the house and justify raising rents on the property, adding more to your income.Let me know if you have any more questions

As I mentioned I would strongly consider adding a third bedroom to the other unit if the current tenant is to move to increase rent as well.
