I am still evaluating if this is the best investment for me to proceed with as we get further through due diligence and I will keep everyone updated on how things go.A couple things come to mind.1.

@Heather Luu  the first thing that comes to mind is if that check was from the insurance company or insurance company funds, it might be time to get them involved.

And then advertising that to them as such.Tell them you don't mind putting in 20 lowball offers to help them get the one steal of a deal property. 

. :)  (Keep in mind the home is worth $500k ) Why?

If you don't mind me asking do you rent out to market tenants or section 8?

However, if you can find properties where you can add significant value, this method could still work well in the long run—it’s just something to be mindful of in your overall plan.With $160k in available cash, you’re in a great position to start purchasing your next property or two.

This would give you more legal standing if they don’t leave on time.Walkthrough: Ensure you do a thorough walkthrough with your general contractor once the seller is fully out to assess any new damage or necessary changes to the scope of work.Planning ahead like this will give you peace of mind and reduce the chances of things going sideways during the transition!

Maybe I will change my mind in a few years but for now, the wounds are too fresh.

You need red.So more and more do you scan the flowers and you mind now conditions you to anything red.

I will keep your suggestions in mind.
