So it was 153k for the purchase and 40k for the rehab, I had to come up with the rest. 

Any luck on motivating realtors in the area to actually get operating expenses/lease agreements for Jackson County specifically George?

Happy to connect if you have any specific questions you are looking to get answered or just want a general run down of the investing landscape here.

First time investor, hoping to obtain my first duplex soon, and this family land purchase is on the horizon as well.

@Kyle LipkoRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

But...it appears this house has furnishings very specific to the house. 

That someone is going to deliver to you, on a silver platter, a property purchase you can simply say "yeah, sure, I'll take that" where you do some paint, carpet, little cleaning and tidying and turn around and clear a $100k? 

Purchase price: $500,000 Cash invested: $100,000 AirBNB in West Sacramento

The seller's LLC pays capital gains tax and depreciation recapture, while the buyer's LLC uses the purchase price as the new cost basis.
