Because every test is $ 400 for me it's a lot of money and I would rather see the state of the infrastructure before the inspector arrives.

Naturally I thought it was a home run I went to see it and I realized it’s driveway was not possible to drive up in perfect weather in an SUV.

As any real estate property, I think I should do the due diligence of actually driving over there and seeing the neighborhood.

Drive for dollars (drive neighborhoods and look for fsbo signs) find distressed properties and ask if they want to sell, or hook up with a motivated local real estate agent and have them do the leg work for you and if they find you a deal pay them the commission they deserve. 

That also tests your knowledge of the local zoning as well as overlay district restrictions.  2 story additions?

We're definitely testing the waters with this house first.

Lots of owners are small franchisees of a brand and they fee them a lot on testing splits for money to head corporate.

@BrandonTurner it is so hard to write while I listen to your audio books while driving.

On the alternative, have you thought about "driving for dollars" and looking for property local to you?

That is going to drive this decision more than whether or not you want to do SFR vs Multiunits.
