I know it usually needs to go through inspection, appraisal, and loan approval.What are the realistically fastest time frames for getting this done as fast as possible?

I suspect the percent is about the same today but I do not desire to go through 1800+ billionaires to determine which ones have significant RE holdings.I do not classify the billionaires that invented something or started a business with those that made their wealth by trading publicly traded companies that they were not an insider. 

@Patrick M. typically tenants in multi family is lower quality tenant than ones in SFH, so if the robots did start taking over they would be the first to go.

I got a relative who wanted to go into the deal and he paid the back payments and the repairs.

I would also pull a HELOC to go ahead and use as a down payment on a new property to live in. 

If you want to eventually live in it, the current income becomes less important, but seems like you can get to 1% if you do some repairs and raise the rent.If this is a buy and hold, the long term desirability of the neighborhood and big picture changes (is this neighborhood gradually getting better, or gradually getting worse?)

I am outgoing, outspoken and confident in my abilities to go into this field, please help. 

It depends on the box size, where it is at location wise and demographics, site lines, access with cross traffic, and if dark but current tenant still paying or totally vacant.Smaller box sizes usually have a long list of tenants waiting to go into the spaces in strong markets.

Well, my tenant may be getting a better job offer in another state, and he has 7 months to go on lease.

Since they never gave me any notice in writing, then the contract is forced to go through.
