People are VASTLY less likely to lie on the commercial side, and they don't do the "waive all contingencies" stuff, so it's a lot safer to take the listing broker's numbers at face value.

I know it will be an issue if sell, but what if I never sell and just keep it as a rental? 

They’re all looking to sell so if you are looking to go out state, I can hook you up lol.

Getting your Real Estate license is a great idea for flipping houses you will be able to save 2.5-3% when you buy (if listed on MLS) but definitely when you sell which is a nice added cushion in case unexpected expenses come up especially when starting out!

Advantages for the seller are that they may be able to sell a property not fit for the MLS and they don't have to fix up the property to MLS standards, they save the realtors fee of 5% or 6%, it's a more flexible sale, they get monthly payments they can use for income.

I would want to close off the stairs from the main level to the bottom floor which could make it an interesting sell down the road.

All potential lots with direct road access sell as individual lots without any development.  

Lets see what the assets sell for, and to whom they sell.Does the lender have a White Knight in the wings to steer them to, or will they go to highest bidder for all cash?
