Hi Health, I am planning on self managing it.

. ($300,000 * 0.70 = $210,000 – $50,000 = $160,000).Walk the Property: Check for structural issues, roof condition, foundation, HVAC, and plumbing.

Sometimes, properties owned by non-profits have deed restrictions, zoning conditions, or agreements tied to their use.Tax Considerations: Non-profits often hold tax-exempt status, so you’ll need to ensure that taxes are assessed correctly once ownership transfers to you.Potential Public or Internal Scrutiny: If the transaction appears to undervalue the property or is perceived as exploiting a non-profit’s resources, it could lead to reputational risks for you or the organization.

Now we're seeing investors pouring money into buying Class C rentals - but, many are getting burned.In our experience & opinion, the main determinant of property Class is not location or even property condition, those are #2 and #3.

I would look at the value of the rentals before you make a decision to see if that makes sense for you.Regarding the furnishings, if you have to pay more for them (again here in FL, properties are generally listed fully furnished and you don't really get a discount to tell people to take the crap out - in fact, I had one guy refuse a good offer because one of my conditions was for them to take their crap!  

Just seems to reflect the reality of generally tight market conditions across most of the U.S. currently, tough to find higher returns.

Personally, if your market tends toward the former condition (better/normal appreciation) I think it's a fairly safe deal looking at the long term, assuming infrastructure around you continues to support the idea of renting it.

In Costa Rica, property condition is a constant variable, far more critical to maintain than the USA. 

Finding the correct contact info is hard enough, but if your pitch is that they should sell cheap now, you're misreading the market.Multifamily properties are worth significantly less now than they were just a few years ago, and asking for a further discount due to property condition would probably result in a loss, maybe not even pay off the debt.

The property could likely sell for close to what we put in, about $230k, based on other properties in the area in similar condition.
