I am a first time buy and hold investor and I've been waiting for this house to come on the market for over a month. It is a HUD home in a rural part of community that came on the market 2 days ago. I won't have too much competition, but don't want to lose the house to nickel and diming and underbidding an already good price. I just want to get in the game and the numbers suggest this is a good price even at full asking price. It is a 3 BR 1.5 bath with driveway. I won't have any problem renting it. The bank is asking 39000. It needs a new kitchen, a new bathroom, floors sanded and finished and some paint. Everything else in the house, basement, furnace, HVAC, is in good shape. Still to get it rent-ready and done right, I need to put in about 20K, probably less if I don't have any unexpected expenses (laugh now). ARV is at least 80K, probably more. The house is not open to investors for another 8 days which will be excruciatingly slow), but if it does not go to an owner-occupant, I am making an offer. Would really appreciate someone willing to look over my numbers before I blow it. Although I would prefer to get a commercial loan to BRRRR it in order to save up my fannie/freddies, the numbers don't seem to cash flow if I BRRRR it, but maybe I'm doing something wrong. I ran the numbers on a 15, 20 and 30 year fixed being pretty conservative using BP rental calculator. I'm willing to give up a little ROI to get in the game. Thanks for any advice you could offer. The numbers on a 15 year fixed are:

$615.89

$209.11

Thanks for any advice you could offer.
