Usually the numbers don't work to build in these neighborhoods, unless government tax credits, etc.Do you see the problem with your two statements:"The turnover costs could/will be high"and"How much more damage could they do?"

After the initial inspection we sent a response to the inspection asking for $21,500 in seller credits to cover the roof and furnace (both needed replaced). 

It's likely a scam anytime they sound like AI or the grammar is weird or they use the word "kindly", if they ask for you to respond to them off-platform, if they say their employer will pay for it, if they ask if the dates they've specified are still open (when they can clearly see they are open on your calendar), if they ask for a video of your property (they probably want to set up a duplicate listing with your photos and video and scam others out of money), or if they want a long term booking and they have just joined the platform and have no reviews (could have been evicted from somewhere else, and hope a newbie will let them in with no background check, they'll end up not paying or credit card is bad).  

I took the 3 day class in Hartford a few years ago because it was free for veterans so I signed up.

If you need any contacts that would travel to do the work feel free to DM me.

Use gap funding (credit lines, partners) for the down payment.

Feel free to shoot me a DM if you want to talk about the market in more detail. 

But I understand where I’m at now, and am willing to work for free until I can provide such value.A little about me.
