Let people know about the property, because once you have it locked in under contract, you have an "equitable interest," in that property.

Most small box retail 20k sq ft and under if location is good can be released in under 6 months.

I’m now on my 3rd flip in under two years.

Seeing as it's only 10-12 ft wide a large dog could run through it & take the zap in under 1 second then be free.

It required upfront work, but now I can do all my CRPs every year in under 15 minutes.

Where I am uncertain is the appraised value, as the homes look like they have not been well cared for, so they may come in under asking. 

I want at least $150-200 after all expenses and debt service.Hard money may be an option, but they're going to want you to add enough value for you to refi and get all your costs out, in under a year.

County and city councilmen and women often get inundated with calls from home owners that they are eyesores and want them gone.

I am possibly a little anxious to buy as my last deal I bought this spring I flipped and resold it for a $32K profit in under 4 months. 

Much like in very hot markets, buyers have to accept that properties will likely come in under the negotiated price... similarly, sellers of SFH that are STR (and have a solid history with data to back it up) have to accept that not everyone's buying to do STR, and those that are will not assume their own management and prior management are 1:1, and so are unlikely to take it without a large grain of salt.I do think a solid STR history will help tell the story that backs up your asking price, but be prepared to factor in comps as heavily if not more so into your pricing and negotiation prep work.
