It can be quite intriguing and interesting to hear of many of these returns and great on paper assessments, but the reality is, they rarley pan out in real life. 

Since the ARV is decent, it might be worth bringing someone in to help.Sell as-is: If financing options don’t pan out, you could consider selling the property as-is.

I know this was a few years ago, but how did it pan out?

The 10% is probably for ordering items and being there when goods arrive, unboxing and removal of packing materials, assembling any furniture that needs it, placement and moving things around, putting up artwork, and washing new plates, silverware, cooking pans, coffee carafe, prewashing all sheets, towels, and linens etc. 

@Yixiong Pan No action can be taken until after the one year redemption period.

The next trend I see are many OOS investors regretting the appeal of cheap properties that don’t pan out long term.  

I could take it in another direction if you wanted to pan annuities and say Ken Fisher (who actually is a financial advisor and fiduciary) is right as they have “nose bleed fees”.   

Hi all, For a rental home, tenant says bathroom floor keep getting wet, even though it is small amount. at first, they thought they dropped some water. after wiping water, however, it keep coming back and now they think there is some water leak. my plumber went to check and found no issue with bath sink. he thinks it must be shower leak. the shower was redone last year by a contractor, who i ended up firing since he did not show up to work later. anyway, i hired water damage restoration (Servpro) company to check how much damage there is now. unfortunately, based on my research, it is very hard to find source of shower leak. i am thinking of rebuilding shower. i hired a kitchen remodel contractor and he gave me two options; either fix shower pan only, or (optionally) rebuild shower as well.
