Securing funding has been challenging, particularly because my business documents reflect low revenue from only one duplex, and I am currently between jobs.I have identified a reasonably priced piece of land and have saved a small portion of the funds from my duplex sale to invest in this venture.

I kept the rent low because the tenant was there for a long time. 

Or you can offer a low enough price to make sense.

If they are low balls then usually you are asking someone to work for free as the fix and flip landscape is competitive for a low pay out.

Low insurance" is concerning to me, as Athens gets a LOT of high wind / weather / tornado activity for unknown reasons - they just got hit again last weekend. 

Conservative and low risk. 

- My first thought is offering cash, but the home owner would most likely just let it go to foreclosure because of how low the offer would be. - My second thought is offering some cash and taking over the loan - there are no liens on the property yet.

The overhead to start a company is low, but the cost to scale is high. 

I usually have very low turnover so I was hoping to organically grow my presence and name brand so that I had more visibility in the marketplace.

The current rents are really low because the tenants are responsible for doing any and all repairs on their buildings (which in my opinion contributes to the poor condition of the buildings).
