**Update**
The buyer backed out of the sales contract when the roof (previously deemed good by contractor) came back that they are asbestos tile and needs replacement. Looking at a $10-15k repair. Time for Plan B...BRRR(R)!
Currently working to refinance this loan, currently at 56% ARV, to about 68% ARV so I can get the roof fixed. At this new mortgage, the rent will be at a 0.96%. I'll be about breaking even after all PITI & Expenses are paid.
I’m pretty excited that, even with all of these hurdles ($30+K over in rehabs + $15k roof replacement), at the end of the day, when rented out, I can still call this house an asset. Time is only on my side at this point!
