Thank you to anyone willing to help crunch these numbers or offer advice!

If you have done the number crunching and feel like it is a good deal you know how much you are willing to fight for it and then becomes a question of finding an answer to the problem- there is one out there just a question of how willing you are to find it.

That window of time would also allow me to "get my feet wet" and learn whether I even like this kind of investing.To compare the ROI of investing gains from the sale now vs. after 2 years, I'll have to crunch some numbers... an exercise that's left to this reader :) If I can get connected with a property management group that I like a lot and the numbers look at least a little favorable, I might give this whole thing a try.

I am in a bit of a time crunch on this to make a decision, but here is my story.

So far I'm torn btwn two:Offer less with a conversation about the repairs that are obviously needed before it's habitable.vsOffer near asking and then after my inspection "crunched the numbers and the repairs needed and need to amend my offer".My problem is im emotional about it because I want to live in it after some hardcore fixin'. 

I'll go crunch some numbers...I'm not confident there is enough of a market in my city to support the kind of business I'd need to run to support my loans, but I'll look into the numbers for sure before discounting the idea.

Will be putting in an offer tonight, but I'll be taking some measurements and crunching some numbers to see if I can rehab it within the budget I'm willing to spend.

It looks like you have done a nice job of crunching the numbers, but do a lot of due diligence on this.

I myself wanted to go this route when I first started out, and I still plan on taking the exam to become licensed, however, I feel as though I can get better hands on experience by building my team (RE agents, bankers, mortgage brokers, accountants, lawyers, ect.) and physically visiting properties and crunching numbers.

I'm worried that my number crunching could be way off and something that seems cash-flow neutral might not be.
