I've also found tenants from online classified ads, holding an open house, and from my own website. 

@Shequila Hamilton  One thing I may have missed, but you stated you're going to ask for seller financing, but is the seller even open to it or can offer it? 

If you're open to it, let's meet up for coffee and discuss further!

@Caleb Heimsoth  as Bob noted, there are people who will paint for $175/day but availability might be a big issue and it also depends on what quality you're looking for (e g does it matter to you that the old paint bleeds thru in a couple of spots)if you figure around $1.05-$1.10/sq ft (of wall space, not just floor space) that will put you on the low end of retail, will give you a decent quality job but won't include wall repair or baseboards/trimdry locking the basement should be around the same price but that stuff has a pretty overwhelming odor so you might get contractors saying they either don't do it or want a premium....get yourself a quart and open it up if you don't know what I mean....I've got a painter and other contractor referrals.....most will work anywhere on the west side. 

If you open a business and run that in the building you are buying yourself a JOB and not investing.

Well all the contracts I downloaded will not open.

We are in New York and our farm area is mainly Suffolk County but we are open to investing in other areas even out of state possibly.

I am located in Kenosha but I am open to people located in surrounding areas like Racine and Milwaukee. 

Eye opening.

One of my properties is one of a cluster of 4plexes but only one is close and open to my property.
