Purchasing vacant property family home
Long time lurker here, finally built up the courage to post. Lol
I really need help with configuring a good deal if it makes sense.
I want to Purchase my grandmother's home as a rental investment but I'm not sure if its a good deal. The quick details:
Ok Decent neighborhood average rent $1200 19802
Grandmother has a 2ND mortgage $38k she just wants out as she is retiring soon.
House is currently vacant(mold) and is listed as so with the city. If I purchase, i would recieve a 10yr 80% tax abatement.
Zillow zestimate $103k
Back taxes/water bill $7200 SHERIFF SALE is imminent
Mold issues,new roof needed(est 60k repairs)
How can i work out a deal that makes sense? I have great credit and my husband and i would be First time home buyers. We don't have much liquidity.
Thank you all in advance!!!
