Ask what they see them selling for and what expenses are by category.

@Aliz Rao I am sure that would work, but even if you jumped directly to a 5 unit I don't think that the bank would weight your lack of experience to heavily.

The weight rooms, nice pool areas with bbq's, washer/dryer hookups, contemporary layouts are A. 

I think a lot of people post to Craigslist and they don't realize they are saying almost the exact same thing as the other 500 ads in the category.  

@Clay Smith   I think you can find out what investors will pay by just popping on any of the TK companies websites and checking out rent to price ratios... 1% is a good number.some do a little better... 2% from turn key in my mind will be C,D class and risk of failure may out weight the benefits of buying at that price point.

(If I check the financed box, my understanding/perception was that it would end up in a different category with the REO.)  

Of course this is a very simplified version of the process...there are plenty of potential pitfalls which is why hooking up with a seasoned, active investor and sharing the profits on your deals (until you're well versed in the process and documents) can be worth its weight in gold. 

What categories, where to put stuff etc.  

Considering that you can apparently spend 30 years in prison for doing so, according to this article: www.flippingfrenzy.com/category/short-sale-fraud/

This is all part of the due diligence process.Maintenance expenses consists of two categories, actual repair expenses, and capital expenditures.
