We were "driving for dollars" and found a house in our neighborhood that has all the signs of neglect: tall grass, exterior needs painted, no deck on the back and sliding door is sealed off.

Interesting that it is a converted hospital, my first thought is that it's probably built waaaay better than the typical multifamily which is usually cheap as possible.

Here's an example:  typical 1-fam 3/1 1,200 sq ft house will sell in a B to C area in Queens for $700--800k. 

Some of what I have read said that monthly rentals are typically more, but perhaps that is only for a new tenant, rather than a steady paying good tenant that you know.

I typically buy in B-/C neighborhoods where none of my multi-family rentals have AC.

With a house hack you can use an FHA loan and only have to put down a couple percent I typically hear 3.5%.

When house hunting, unless you want to purchase your own kitchen, look for homes which include a kitchen in the rent price, this is typically displayed as “EBK” or Einbaukuche” There are few expats who move to Germany with their kitchen sink in hand, so ensure your know and expect this before visiting a kitchen-less home.9.

Typically you would start with a complaint filed with the local police and they should be able to help escalate it.Good luck.

Welcome to world of agents (beware of the snakes in the grass) 2.

I know that investors typically cover those expenses on multi-families, however not sure about SFH.
