I like the idea of adding value as long as you don't spend too much cash and/or plan to do a cash out refi at some point to keep your cash working for you and getting a good return on equity; the biggest advantage with this strategy is the low down payment with the lowest available interest rate.

It depends on what you are spending on the deal.Sounds like it is about 50% expense ratio at 54.55% which I think is along with industry standards.The net income looks like its $23,543 for the seller.What is his interest rate?

If so, spend more time in underwriting, if not, let it sit a while and/or call broker to figure out why they are pricing where they are when sellers financials don't support that value.
