I am going to be living as cheap as humanly possible these next couple weeks.

Success or failure is a human decision, but you seem to have addressed that nicely.It looks like you did your homework and have pretty good idea what to expect.

I believe in humans overall self interest to go work and buy stuff. 

I recently signed a lease to rent an apartment , but during the viewing i missed some key issues with holes and openings in some of the walls which allows mice and other insects to come in if chosen to , also a basement window that doesn't lock .

@Timara Marie have you chosen a title company and if so can you please share your experience so far & name of company?

@Michelle FennAll HUD bids are reviewed by a human. 

As for amenities, that will vary widely depending upon your chosen market, so take a look at competing properties and see what they're offering - take into consideration what is realistic for you at your target price point, and be sure that whatever you choose to offer, it's something you can maintain consistently with every guest.

But the hazard insurance is something only YOU control, this means you order if from your chosen insurance agent.

Read everything you can get your hands on and listen to the BP Podcast as much as humanly possible (driving, showering, eating, working out, etc.)

These could become great deals, if the wait-time means the seller is now more motivated.Also, sometimes a great deal gets hidden due to human error.
