Overall condition is pretty good new appliances in the kitchen just a very dated 1990s look.

The big deals will be vacancy, capex and appliances. (3 water heaters, stoves, fridges, microwaves?

This is just another argument for ALWAYS including appliances with a rental.

Until you spend 20k on paint and some new kitchen appliances, but the roof and foundation are still shot and the 100k ARV is more like 70k in reality.

You find the house completely trashed with missing appliances and cabinets, tenants were cooking meth, windows broken, etc. 6-8 months of unpaid rent, unpaid utilities, thousands to empty the abandoned property and trash, $50,000 to completely renovate the property and make it rentable again, plus all the time, energy, and stress along the way.I would actually argue this is pretty common and not even the worst-case scenario. 

Will it be after it has been stripped of all the appliances etc etc?

we run all heat pump appliances so our bill is higher than most.

So now we’ve had to call appliance repair guy.
