Since then they have painted the room, I got rid of the tree, and after periodic visits I have noticed a significant improvement in the
maintenance of the
front yard which in turn has made my home look much more well kept.
Looking at listing may not need full rehab, new roof and water heater done, 3br in neighbor run 900 to 1000, rehab for low
maintenance, try to buy as low as you can, look at comps, probably could go in as low as 38 - 42 with good agent and stress as is, maybe a few agents here to help, get one to give you good numbers not listing agent numbers, street is a nice one for area, not much back
yard or parking but nice
front, before you close make sure vacant contingent, if numbers work I would do it, the are predicting an abundance of rentals avail next year with building craze but keeping expense low you should be safe, remember don't rehab as if you are living there, think durable and repaintable, number should go into systems and structure first, elect, heat, walls, windows, floors, plumbing, if you use a contractor go with one you know or work with someone in area to keep an eye on progress, good luck at least you know some of the history of the property
