I have spent the past 12 months reading the forums, particularly on how to sharpen up my skills on crunching the numbers on potential deals, to mitigate the risk of making a poor investment decision.

I'm also crunching down on my expenses/maintenance items.

Basically not ruling anything out, we will see how the rehab goes, crunch the numbers, and then make a final decision.Thanks for the reply!

." :) Crunching the numbers did really help put it into perspective. early on Another BPer posted something like. ok 90 dead & the other 330 million are gonna lose everything we've got. 

If this was a good deal from the start and it made sense after you crunched the numbers then move forward.

Last comment would you buy this deal if your in the Pittsburgh area based on location and crunching the numbers?

The ability to come up with alternative options in a crunch is imperative in this business.I know you received some harsh comments above.

Plus I may be overly conservative on some of my number crunching (to the dismay of some RE agents out there). 

Very conservative I would not bet but assume a 25% down given the current mortgage crunch. 

There are also going to be a TON more motivated sellers in the upcoming months due to the Corona cash crunch everyone is in.
