Paying extra for the right people, big picture, is actually the lowest-cost solution.

Hello Bigger Pockets family,I have weekends available to help any investors that need an extra hand with their business, I want to get my hands dirty by helping out, I have 5 years as appraiser experience.

I would defiantly get a lawyer involved to at least get some questions answered and run an extra search for any possible written easement.  

@Matt WoodburyWhat matters is if the property has positive cash flow and a positive cash on cash ROI that meets your investing goals.Having a little extra equity at closing is great, but it isn't a real decision maker if the property has negative cash flow.

Protect yourself and spend the extra money to bring it up to 2018 code.

Like many things I believe its all up to the individual person, and their perspective.

You could also choose to use some funds to get brokers/realtors to kick you leads.. who wouldn't love some extra bucks for passing along infoIf you're looking to sell properties I'd have to say facebook works wonders for targeting people in a specific geographic area and I've had some real success with it for my business.

I just spoke to city engineer they estimated 2880 per unit to install new individual water meter and also mentioned that they don’t do individual water meters for apartments itseems.

A PM will probably run $1-2k, plus an extra month of vacancy, plus their fill fee.  3-4 months rent per turn at one thousand per month.

I determined it was much easier if I did not have to raise the extra 6% in cash from investors just to put in my pocket as my commission.
