Lead free is a different inspection and costs more.

However, one rental covers the cost of the dues ($800 give or take). 

I think you’ll be able to write off the costs of going after the rent but not the missing rent.

i.e 500k (400k building+100k land cost),  with cost segregation average 400k X 20% = 80kcan 80k deduction be applied as depreciation, against his w2 income from a salaried position?

Thoughts on the cost of this? 

It is a common practice and comes at no cost to you.I would also recommend you require your tenants to get tenant's insurance and add you and your property manager as additional insured as well! 

You know, I always think that is very misleading when they charge thousands of dollars to newcomers base off marketing that boasts getting into real estate with no money down.These deals cost money. 

The only payment you should accept is 100% in full, including late fees and court costs, and it has to be in certified funds (cash, money order, cashier's check).

Leaks can be easy to fix or very costly to fix.
