Also, make sure that you are judging based on actual expenses and not proforma numbers  I would demand that all units be inspected to see if all future expenses will be uncovered. 

Talk about actual $ and it's "Sokath, his eyes uncovered!"

If you own it for 2 years as your official primary residence (where your driver's license and voting is registered, oh and where you officially live, of course), you'll qualify for the capital gains exemption up to $250k when you sell.Sometimes just having another pair of eyes helps to uncover your options.

If you send out enough offers (like we do) it's not hard to uncover folks that are ready to sell.Sure a lot more goes into it, but that's the gist.Hope that helps!

Record every wall, ceiling, floor, front and back of doors, shades opened and closed, window screens, yard from every angle, home exterior from every angle, mattresses (uncovered), etc.

You should beable to uncover most everything.

I'm doing research first, to try to uncover anything that I'd regret my decision for.

Assuming 50% OE, and hitting the $100 per door cash flow (which everyone should use as a minimum in my opinion), may not be a good investment as your due diligence may uncover that the area is in a large downturn resulting in reduced rents over time, higher expenses, less tenants to choose from a declining population, no upside potentials, etc. etc. etc.

One of the best ways to uncover the motivation of the seller is to find out why they are selling.
