I did not want to spend 50K on doing separate meters for where I have my rentals it would cost me this much.

So many "investors" bury themselves in complex, expensive situations to protect themselves from some unknown threat to their non-existent business.Figure out if you have any shooting skills (or even enjoy the game) before spending money on $600 Nikes or an indoor basketball court. 

Asking strangers how to spend your money is a fool's errand.

With the deferred maintenance and your $150K rehab budget, offering $200K out of the gate would not make financial sense.

I know how to use the basic features of QBO, as I do my own expense tracking, but my Bookkeeper is needed for the more complex entries (Loans, capital balances, reconciliation, data entry from PM monthly statements.)I spend almost 8k per year in QBO and Bookkeeping costs (Not including my accountant or tax prep.)

But, there are still deals that can make sense depending on your budget. 

For example if you think the house is worth 200K fixed up you need to pay 100K to afford the hard money loan and rehab budget and still have a profit.

Housing agencies have an annual budget and issue vouchers based on that budget. 

An appraiser likely isn't going to spend time giving you much feedback in advance (unless you have a connection or they are super slow).   

As a new fix and flip investor lenders will typically want to see 20% down payment and will be able to fund 20% of the rehab budget (80% LTC).
