All of those sold comps that are showing properties with same size and age, are not updated (they still have the interior from the late 80's), which is why I am having a hard time to find comps that support my asking price.

Taking it a step further, I thought it would be a good idea to consider multifamily properties where I could rent out the other unit(s) to cover the mortgage (or even better produce positive cash flow) while reserving one unit for my vacation home. 

You’ll get all the info you need, phone #’s, owners name(s), address and what other addresses they’re holding.

Has anyone experienced Self Directed lenders not providing financing on properties built before the 1940’s and not financing properties less then $75k?

Perhaps a nice 1950's built bungalow.Always hire a 3rd party property inspector to give you an unbiased feel for the home.

It's an older 1960's (In Arizona thats an older home) home and I am thinking since I will be stripping it to the bones I would like to replace the plumbing.
