It also has its own kitchen and bathroom but , just like the basement unit, as the owner I am paying for utilities and no renter has a lease, though they've been here for a few years each without issue.I'm afraid of bringing in a city inspector only to be told I have to tear down the basement and attic units, costing me a ton of money, plus I'd be in the hole over $1000 per month because of no rent.

Also, they will also send an inspector to see if the work was done, then they report that to the HML, and then they issue a wire for the Draw.

I would move forward and get an inspector in who has a structural engineering background.

Hi Rashad, I am in the Indianapolis market -- let me know if you would like to connect.

I currently have an offer accepted on a duplex in the Indianapolis neighborhood.

So, not that I am a pro or anything, but this is my pro tip: Some inspectors have their own way of doing things.

So the sellers (my clients) contacted me, I cooperated and got the inspector to come out and review my work and close out the permit.

There are many strategies you could target but more times than not in the RE investing space, slow and steady wins the race.I am not a fan of telling other investors what is the "best investment" strategy because there are so many out there.Starting here on Bigger Pockets is a good start but you can also start building out our real estate agent, property management, turnkey investment provider, and inspector network in any target market. 

I had to pay for each of those items to be completed, HML would send out an inspector to check and approve, then the funds for those items would be released, effectively reimbursing me. 

The house is in Indianapolis.
