Quote from @Adam Lacey:

Welcome to BP . Ohio is a great state to find cashflowing properties. I don't personally own anything there, but I have spent a little time looking and met @Paul Sian who is a great investor friendly agent in Cincinnati.


 Thanks Adam.  Cincinnati has a wide variety of MFH investment real estate depending on your criteria.

I am an attorney and investor.  I turned over my buy and hold multi family investment to a PM so I can concentrate on legal work and the acquisition part of real estate.  I work in the fields of real estate and contract law so it also lends itself to real estate.

@Account Closed if any work needs permits then when those permits are inspected by the city they will look for licensed contractors that do the work.  Electrical, plumbing and HVAC are licensed trades in KY.  Anything else you can handle yourself and if permits are not need you can also handle those areas yourself as well.

What kind of rehab loan?  If something hard money related then that would be a question to ask the lender.  If it is a government sponsored rehab mortgage pretty much everything will have to be done by a contractor(s).

@Leigh Corcoran

Usually water and common electric if present.  If there is one boiler then add gas to that or gas for a common water heater.

Since you have the leases the estoppels are overkill IMO.  Make sure you do have the leases assigned to you upon closing though from the seller.
