Pop Growth: 7% since 2000

Median Household income of $38,000

5% down is based on current savings while keeping a good amount in reserves, I could go 10% with a partner if the forum thinks 5% is impossible. 8% management fee based on a local management company posted pricing. I plan to use Cozy to self manage and will switch if I feel that I can't handle it.

The property has been on the market for 49 days and was originally purchased in August of 2018 for $100,000 which probably means it was a flip. Is a $30,000 discount unrealistic? I feel like the worst they can do is reject or counteroffer.

What do you all think, "yeah sounds legit" or "That's far from realistic"
