I have a lead who i offered a subto/seller finance option to. back story lead is getting a divorce and can get ~340k if listed. asked 300k if sold to me, everything updated within past 5 yrs except carpet and interior paint.

The  unit is rented consistently and is functional but also needs upgrades, new siding (has 2 layers), Some rooms could benefit from re-wiring and more insulation,   Painting is always an issue as it is not plaster but older thin wallboard. kitchen is fairly new, bathroom could use upgrade, upstairs bedrooms have some pitched ceilings but I don't think based on the foundation/construction it is a candidate for a full second story and it had a new roof a few years ago.

Welcome Brandon - I have properties here in the wyoming valley.I am a native to the area.Scranton has many hoops to jump as an investor - esp. an out of the area investor.One is you'd have to hire a property manager if you do not live in the city of Scranton or within 20 miles of the city.Real estate taxes are high -that plus the current interest rate and ask prices makes cash flow an issue.You can find "deals" but please do your due diligence.Here is an example of a potential deal I am evaluating in the hill section of the city: 20 y/o, 2000 sq ft. 3b/3bath TH - Needs paint, new carpeting, and general wear and tear repairs after a 4 year tenant.

Before finalizing the deal, I'd like to get some opinions on whether this amount is too low or too high.The renovation projects are minor ones, such as painting, window work, kitchen renovations, some repairs and corrections that do not require permits.Thank you!

It's best to use the same paint brand/color/sheen as much as possible so you can keep leftover for touchup.Light fixtures: Make sure they have easy-to-replace bulbs and are bright enough for the space.

Heck, some people can handle paint and that’s about it!
