I can't say those things, as I am a biased source.

B2R seems to be OK with a loan for the 20% down as long as there isn't a second lien holder, but they would have to source the funds and since those would be coming from my relative's IRA, they won't have been in the lender's bank account for the two months' seasoning.

I am the GP of a US LLLP, in order to be able to legally investment in US real estate.This makes it tough to finance through conventional sources. 

Crowdfunding will surely be transitioning to a direct model as time wears on so you can probably find sponsors that will take 1031 money into their DST if the money sourcing window is short.  

Do you have a book or any other source which goes from A-Z?

I am in a very unusual situation.Every other source (appraisal, assessor, all 5 previous MLS listings, online data,...) shows it being built in 1985. 

It may be cheaper than a professional inspection and I am not a big carpet fan, so you get that out anyway (especially if near end of useful life) and get to see the sub-floor, investigate thoroughly, and treat it if necessary (bleach/water, Mildicide, etc), and explore if there is a source (leak) or not, or if it was tenant negligence....Then you could go from there and call in professional help if needed and explore who should bear the costs, if any.I agree, there is some risk of rewarding the behavior (the complaint, by giving a new floor), but you mitigate it some by making the tenant remove all items from the room and endure some inconvenience.

The crime map on Trulia says the crime is low, but I'm almost sure this can't be accurate based on other sources I've found during my research.

Within two weeks we were rat free, never to return mostly due to closing the trash can and not placing trash bags on the ground next to the can.Rats don’t just hang out for fun without a food source nearby, they are smart and actually spend most of their day grooming themselves – go figure.
