I would be interested to know in general how you find operators in order to be a truly passive investor.  10k foot view is all I am seeking.

Yes, but it's shooting yourself in the foot.

A couple of thoughts:The best quote I recently received for a roof (1,700 square foot ranch - SF BayArea) was about double that of your budget item;  the electrical line item also seems low based on charges I am seeing up here ($100/hr -$120/hr) and what I understand will need to be done (essentially wiring an entire house)

Both offers came from virtual tours, neither buyers had stepped foot in the property. seller didn’t want to entertain either offer.

You just need to abide by the 6 foot distancing rule.

Danielle Dorien you can shoot yourself in the foot and lose a lot of money by purchasing a leasehold property without understanding the many nuances of ownership.

I am thinking he might have thrown out a high number so that if it comes back at 20% its not such a shock. but he does not want his owners also being caught flat footed.. my client has no money issues so its not a stressor other than its lost income and he knows he will not get it back in the future IE trying to get tenants to pay he does not believe will be too successful and frankly not sure if he will even try..

They’ve broken 4 windows, the storm door, damaged siding, ripped a 4 foot by 3 foot hole in the bedroom wall, and mangled the floors.

If you're in jurisdiction, you can send them to collections but get it rented out ASAP obviously.If they owe you money, keep the deposit OR offer them half back if they can let you a tenant in 2 weeks.Couple of ways to leave on the right foot and salvage the rent.Reach out to me anytime
