In a C area, you can significantly increase the value and rents of the building with a few badly needed upgrades, just to provide some necessary exterior appeal.The major aesthetic liabilities to overcome are as follows, one at a time... the building sits just a few feet off the street and has a power pole complete with lotsa wires planted super close.

The seller's alternative in this case is to wait for an all cash buyer - or provide financing himself.Third scenario is the seller who wants to get a higher price - higher than market - and uses seller financing to attract buyers who can not obtain financing from outside sources - and who are willing to pay a higher price for a property with "built in' financing.As a purchaser, you should be looking for either (1) the highly motivated seller, (2) a property that can not be financed except by the seller - IF you can fix the problem (hint: a property next to a nuclear power plant is probably NOT a fixable problem!)

Sounds like these are a lot of pieces that must come together, but if you can make it happen, more power to ya.If your buyer brings their own financing it would be difficult because banks don't like names on the HUD that are not the seller or the buyer or the RE agent.

With regards to hassles, the only hassle is when there are unexpected expenses, but if you buy right, then you'll have budgeted for them upfront so it's less of a big deal.That being said, I have another physician I work with who has a few SFRs that he oversees some minimal rehab and manages himself.
