Rhino is an insurance program, and I do not recommend them.

In one of the youtube videos he has someone offer 5k of EMD for a return of 3k.

Sounds like an easily executable deal from what you've stated but likely need more color to offer path forward, terms, etc.

Does anyone have a "program" or formula to use to establish a reasonable list price based on current income and expenses.

I came across The Investors edge that offers 100% financing as long as the all in cost is 74% or less of the ARV.

Id keep looking if it was not an approved short sale ( even an approved short sale takes a very very long time and theres no guarantee that you will even close on the house after months of waiting). q1)There are plenty of non traditional lenders that could offer you construction financing if the numbers make sense but it will cost you with points and a higher rate.

Another option is investing in real estate through partnerships or fractional ownership, focusing on properties that yield cash flow or appreciation potential.For long-term growth, consider diversifying into assets such as private equity, tax liens, or even certain types of real estate that offer both capital appreciation and income potential over time.

This criteria is for 1-4 and 5-8 unit programs.

If you choose to go with a first time home buyer program, you would need to identify all the terms and advantage of that as MANY are available.

While an LLC can offer liability protection and tax benefits, it’s not essential for a single property—personal liability insurance and an umbrella policy may suffice for now.
