Buying a foreclosed multi-family can be a very good way to buy a property for a price that will generate acceptable cash-flow. In my experience, any back-and-forth with the bank/fannie mae is more off-set by the discount I was able to achieve in the price of the property.
That said, I'd recommend that you do a good study of your rental market there in Harrogate. With a population of ~4,500, is there enough demand for rental units to justify getting into that business there? Is there enough demand for student housing to make it worthwhile?
