The file is limited on what it can do, and misses the mark on things like depreciation recapture or like-kind exchanges, which will impact returns, but it’s fairly sophisticated relative to what you can find out there or if you were doing it yourself with limited knowledge.

Minimal repairs and focused marketing ensured we didn't miss the opportunity to flip this property within a single day.

I'm worried that the time it takes for me to analyze other properties I could be missing out on potential opportunities.

The risk is a failed inspection blocks Section 8 payments, so I could miss a month's payment if I don't get the issues resolved by the end of the month.

You don't miss out on anything.

You have to make your personal decision, considering the time and effort it will take you to DIY it; the risk of it being done wrong, and the potential opportunities you might miss by not letting the pros handle it for you.The more expensive your property is - the more reasons you have to hire professionals.

Sure we need more government help  I think you're missing my point.

I am not a credit expert.. just know how tough construction loans are .. so with zero experience and missed mortgage payments I suspect u will not find a lender that will do a loan for you. 

We did get negotiate money from them to help with roof repair, but now know they were not honest on their disclosure.Our inspector missed  code violations, HVAC issues, pipes that had been worked on and issues hidden that had occurred while sellers lived in the house, signs of drainage and water damage inside the house that had been painted over, completely blocked dryer vent...and we are finding more daily.We have had the house looked at by a structural engineer and HVAC techs  that has told us we need thousands (likely tens of thousands) of dollars worth of repairs to make this property able to rent and come up to code for rental.
