@Mary Lopez It definitely depends on your scenario and the details.

But that depends on the level of rehab, price point and so on. 

It really depends what your goals with REI are.

If so, you may choose to simply add it to the lease as being damaged at move-in so the tenant doesn't get charged for it when they leave.

It just depends on your expectations for what looks like a win.

No appraisalI realize I don't get to choose the terms when using a white label service but I'd like to get close until I have my own funding. 

You've also got 30k of equity in the property that you created, which you're choosing to leave tied up in exchange for that $100/mo.

. $25k for helical piers sounds a little steep, but it's been a few years since I saw a quote for that, and of course it depends on how many you need.

That highly depends on your pay structure.

No matter where you choose to invest, please keep in mind the following (copy & paste):--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Recommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a Class A property in Class D area, what quality of tenant will you get?
