Its frustrating but could be worse.When I went to NYC housing court for an eviction and money collection the judge asked me "Doesn't the mortgage allow you to pay up to 15 days past the due date....Well, afford that same window to your tenants".

There was a room in the basement that could be a fourth bedroom with an egress window installed - value add!

Since I do all my own work, my rehab cost should be around $10k with new windows.

The majority of the sound wave intrusion in your room probably comes in through the window, so if you have that much outside noise I would start at the window.

All new roof, siding, windows, paint this year.

Even for agreement renewals, there is a 30 day window you must inform them you will not renew or else it re-up's for another 12 months. 

Newer (10 years old) roof, windows, furnace, water heater 2016, & Murray electrical box 2004. it does get some moisture in the basement.it may become section 8.can anyone give me any advice either on the place or going about the purchase.

My plan is to get 5% of the price we agree upon and then with the contract it will give them a 1-3yr window of finding conventional financing.

Is the building brick or frame stucco.Look for damage at all door and window jams and around any source of moisture.

I need to replace new roof, replace windows, pain and fumigation for termite treatment.
