Amenities, location, style, condition, lot size, neighboring homes, etc all play a role in the ARV.I tend to disagree with some of the comments above as I do not believe them all to be accurate, however, the important thing here is to learn how to properly evaluate a property's current and after repair value and there are many factors involved in this process, not just bed/bath and square footage.

We have only chosen those places because of the presumably good schools and house styles.  

@Karsen Wynn Even if you find a part-time job, they are going to want a two year history of you having part time employment in order to give you credit for that income.Your best bet is going to be to go through a Non-Prime/Portfolio style loan where they are approving you like they would a commercial property - based on cash flow and some other metrics that do not require you to have income.

The key is finding your style and making it work with your personality.
