First Wholesale Lead! Need Advice Please.
I received my first lead today! Very exciting stuff. I need more perspective on what an investor would buy at so I can make on offer. This one has some details that I'm not sure about. I just want to do a good job and make sure the end buyer gets a good deal. Please tell what you would do or give your advice. So here is the deets!
Newer Manufacture Home on .25 acre in Shelton, WA .. C Neighborhood
Buyer says 3 Bed 2 Bath 1,120 sq ft
Assessed @ 79k
Comps at 75k
Has renter at 650 now
Property Management in the area says rent should be $1,000, if the market softened $900. (if it's a 3/2)
He states the roof just needs cleaned and the dishwasher is broken.
Interesting parts:
The final inspection was never signed off in 2013! (The notes are below in all caps.) Also, there is not record of the "As-Built"?
So the question is, is this worth pursuing? If so, what is a good purchase price for an investor?
Thank!
Scott
