However, in this case it’s worth circling back in 3 months, 6 months, or a year because this seller wants to sell, he’s just not ready to give up his fantasy deal.If the seller’s response is acceptance of the outline of my offer but countering on price or terms, it may be worth negotiating because we MAY be able to get to YES.My biggest profits have occurred when I made offers that were nowhere near what the seller was asking and yet WERE ACCEPTED, or with small modifications.

We charge our owners $50/hr and the toilet install would look like this:1hr to drive to and from HD, 1 hour to remove the toilet, 1 hr to install the toilet, $100 - $150 for materials = $250 - $300.

Otherwise, the renters could be bitcoin mining or driving 2-3 electric cars and you’re paying for everything. 

I work in property management software so I often talk to property managers and investors across the country about their strategies and experience with investing in their areas.... but for our first (few) investment properties, we'd like to stay within driving distance (currently live in Quincy, MA).
