Is this a good first deal?

Hey Guys,

I am just getting started and am hoping for some input on my first potential deal. 

It's a short sale that the seller's lender has approved for $90,000. ARV is $125,000. The seller is paying $3000 in closing I'm expecting a $15,000 rehab that I will roll into a renovation loan. I have put a $250 deposit, and the inspection is set for early next week.

A 3 bed/2 bath of the same size rents for $1200 to $1300. Since it's a 4/1 I think I'll have trouble getting the top end. There is an area off of the master that I could add a half bath that would help get there, but I have to get a good estimate. I think I could add a Saniflo macerating toilet and sink for around $5000, but the hassle for issues & repairs might be a bit much for my first property.

The numbers seem to be a bit thin. Should I walk away? Is there anything I can do to negotiate a better price at this point?
