I would price out the plumbing and electric for the smaller stacked units (think ge space maker or smaller) in the units before a free standing building....you just need a closet size space and they do this in the efficiency units (450square feet) where I have a condo rental..this may put the costs for electric back on tenant if individually metered..

Or you could use the lease to make the tenants do their own repairs, but that can be hit or miss.

Feel free to hit me up if you think I can be of assistance. 

Almost hit my car!

I am pretty sure that I am not the only who is hitting the speed bump with DTI here.

You can always do the same thing - google "cheap houses, wholesale houses, sell my house fast", etc etc, and just hit up a few wholesalers and ask them what attorney they use.
