The authorities are using the Peabody floods a few years ago as an excuse to hit the residents, and the FHA program will force that onto you.We have a great chorus for this: "It's the cost of doing business".

We need at least a 2br for ourselves and are looking for some forced appreciation in a B- to A+ community.

Most of the investors that I know who have purchased multi-unit buildings convert the units into forced air (furance) where each apartment has its own furnace, hot water tank, and central air unit.

The you may be forced to file eviction action if the rent is not paid and would like to avoid this if possible, Also have manager contact her emergency contact "the son maybe" and inform him of the status of the mom. 

That said, I'm relatively lazy and have zero appetite for C- or Warzone areas.

Typical HVAC systems force air to move through the house, but that also means that dust, pollen and other issues that can cause concern move as well.

Use that as the driving force to get to your destination.
