If you can narrow it down to a few complexes you should do a letter writing campaign and try to get an off market deal.  

It costs more so may or may not be the best value if styles change and the floor looks dated in 10 years.

But then when we go to verify employment, boom, what HR puts in writing is that she's part time.

I pay around $26 each month and write it off.  

I can write about that if you want, but we do cover that almost too much on bp.I'm not sure of your market. 

In NJ its pretty easy to find the same style house right around the corner or block.But to your question, never rely on what's listed on tax records or what agents put down.

I agree with the others and get a lawyer to write it up.

The first step for me would be to introduce myself to the tenants - in writing - with instructions for payment of rent, reporting maintenance, and a request to schedule an in-person inspection of their unit within one week.

If they are VERY professional, they will have their processes in writing as verification that it is enforced equally and fairly by their entire staff.6.

I would like to write a contract to purchase the property contingent on approval to change the property's zoning (has to go to Board of Commissioners, takes about 60 days).
