If so, from an appraisal standpoint, they would both be evaluated using the sales comparison approach as SFR.

That would be point number 1.Point number 2 is, you haven't provided any of the numbers necessary to evaluate a deal.

Can I trust you to evaluate and manage risk appropriately?

I still have a lot of evaluating to do but I wanted to reach out to BP to get some thoughts.  

For now, I'm inclined to disregard these and hope for better catches later, but if I *don't* get such, I might have to fall back on such as this, and figure out how to evaluate the situation...

This is a trick for helping you to quickly evaluate dozens or hundreds of deals without spending agesdoing so.

Keep on educating yourself, keep evaluating deals, look for a agent that will work with you.

Then there is the evaluation of your property.

Trust your evaluation of the property value a thousand times over what someone is asking for a property.

I highly recommend that you step back, get all your numbers strait, and re-evaluate the deal to ensure that you know exactly what you're getting into.
