Now that BP has somehow determined #1 status for some members it might be fun to do a weekly podcast with the #1s in a round table. 

$125,000 to $180,000 per door depending on size and what will fit.

I would work with an experienced agent where good negotiating skills were table stakes and that's their value proposition (they do it all day, every day).   

Would I qualify for a mortgage this size?

Also i think it may be size of property. my experience and discussions, VRBO tends to be older members looking for larger properties.

If you don't have enough to buy with cash and will get a mortgage, I would focus on finding a good-value home with a solid CAP rate and Cash-on-Cash return that will appreciate and fit the most common rental size house in your area. 

Developed this by making a table in our 40 mile radius market.  

On top of that, a new home is generally going to have a lot more demand due to size, finishes, amenities etc.

I would think that at the closing table, the owner would have to clear the IRS lien with the sale of the property and then come out of pocket.
