We are looking at the higher comps in the neighborhood since most of the house is in great shape and the repairs we calculated was to bring the kitchen and master bath up to higher standards for the neighborhood.

Looks like I need to invest in QB and the time required to master it. 

By picking a single strategy (ex. small multi-family, single family, apartments, self-storage, mobile homes, etc.) you can concentrate your time and resources on mastering that strategy to maximize the ROI you can get.

It's in great shape with updated kitchen and master, but we have 17k worth of solar panels on the roof and we need the sale to cover that.

I like floors2yourhome.com vinyl plank click lock or home depot allure traffic master glue-strip or allure ultra clicklock.

This way you can give all your attention to mastering that aspect of investIng prior to moving onto the next.

If for some reason you really have to get this property, it might be easiest to pursue a master lease with the owner, or a lease purchase, or contract for deed type transaction, and then you can sub-lease the property. 

Others (like myself) prefer to specialize and become masters of using one technique to solve certain problems.What's not to like?

Master lease with the option to buy?

Don't buy a fancy condo with a high monthly condo fee in a building that doesn't allow rentals or a house that only has one bathroom and you have to walk through the master bedroom to get to it.
