Yes, I do some of those things you mentioned but in this instance I am not looking to buy and hold, so I need to verify a true ARV of $80k which he suggested. 

For instance, commercial apartment investors may look for Cap Rate and IRR (Internal Rate of Return), whereas a multifamily residential investor may want to know ROI and Cash-on-Cash return.

Be sure to set up keywords, for instance "Buffalo" or "multi-unit," so that you get a notification when people post things that are relevant or interesting to you.

It's probably worth mentioning, there could be other instances that you will have to deal with this.

For instance if you want industrial I wouldn't be the best fit.

For instance, If you can get a property that has an NOI of $70,000 at a 10 cap you would have a purchase of $700,000.

It's a situational tax to claim, but there are plenty of instances (like if you've lived in the property 2 of the past 5 years) where the tax would not apply.

Renovations, unless classified as emergency repairs, (or unless they do not affect tenant living... a new roof for instance) typically need to be done in between tenant occupancy.  

For instance, if you could sell the next 120 payments for $75,000, the buyer would be getting a rate of 10.52%.

Burke:Primary code compliance requirements (electrical, plumbing, building, fire) during an upgrade/renovation are provincially / nationally regulated, but in some instances inspected and enforced by the City.
