The building is up for sale for a measly $69k and contains just under 3k square feet (not including basement).

Husband/wife team, won't climb ladders that are higher than 24 feet - so maybe an issue with houses with basements in the future.

I would plan on cutting and capping the main line a few feet after the shutoff.

I like the house very much and it appraised, but just found out that the appraised square footage is 22% (404 ft) less than advertised.Seller used tax record to advertise the sq ft, and is an investor/flipper, so they likely bought it without an appraisal and can claim they didn’t know.

I'm looking to build a portfolio of properties in the long term, but in the short term I'm looking to get my feet wet and learn as much about the REI market. 

I would also characterize a seasoned investor as someone with some life experience in business and investment, perhaps with some road beneath their feet in life.  

If your walls are not plumb and square, bigger tiles will be harder to work with.

.- Each unit is 3BR / 2BA,1200 square feet.  

(Like finding out the 450K home actually values at 315K and the reason it is on the market is because no investor will come within 500 feet of it).2) If things do go south you are only ruining a business relationship.
