In our lovely state of WA once the removal is approved, it could take another week or two until the sheriff gets to the property and posts the legalese paperwork on the door(they are busy), basically telling the bum that he will be tossed on XX date. 

I’d love your input on whether this deal could appeal to investors and how best to structure it.Property Details:Worth: ~$300,000HOA: $273/month, Taxes/Insurance: ~$170/monthCurrent Rent: $1,880/month (long-term); next tenant advertised at $1,950/month.Mid-term rental potential: ~$2,400/month (I haven’t tried this, but it’s my estimate).My Financing Idea:Large down payment: ~$125,000 (This is my priority to reinvest elsewhere).Seller-financed balance: ~$175,000 at 4.25% for 30 years.Buyers take over taxes, insurance, and HOA.Questions:1.

Take the emotions out of it and evaluate on what the deal is telling you.Good luck!

A great contractor takes pride in their work, whether it’s making sure tiles are perfectly aligned or that the trim looks just right.4.

Not to mention the economic development steps the town is taking in ensuring the growth of town (roads, schools, zoning) stays on par with the future expected population growth and new jobs that are going to be a result of the new factories opening.  

Is your highest priority immediate cash flow or would you rather have an investment that may give you a greater return but it may take a couple of years?

If you can sit on the sidelines and be choosy this requirement is fine, but you are going to have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find someone with that much cash on a wrap sale transaction...it may take 6+ months unless you advertise like a mad man3.

Financially free always betas debt free, and taking on more "smart" debt is not only opposite of risky but actually the goal for the most seasonal investors.  

So, your focus may need to pivot from high rental cash flow to little to no cash flow as a rental with an appreciation upside.I would recommend taking your $150K to $200K and securing a solid equity position in something that will cover its expenses and maybe provide a small cash flow, but then is poised to appreciate nicely over the course of the next several years.
