However, it all comes down to what the appraisal says market rent will be as a LTR not MTR.

Hi BP Community, I'm an investor in a few Ohio markets and I'm looking to break into Detroit.

I accepted an offer after a week on market for $105k, but it fell out of escrow because the seller wanted the roof replaced.

What markets are you intersted in? 

I don't know any personally but the Bay Area is such a huge market I'm sure you can find someone.

This occurred long before automated advance electronic payments.Interestingly, I never rented to nuns before, I learned that this nunnery doesn't issue paychecks, as the convent provide jobs, housing as well as food at the convent.

I'm thinking it might be wise to invest into the rental market and live in a unit for now and then buy a primary later on.

Marketing a property in which you only have an “equitable interest” in is muddy watersHope this helps

You may be able to market the whole package to someone who may want to wipe out the 3-unit and build a large apartment building with storage units across the road where the gulley is now, where you make a nice profit on the sale plus ruin this guy's green-space entrance to his neighborhood. 

No idea, every market is different and I would venture to guess that my market would have more of the modern and contemporary designs than TX.
