I don't know much about them.The home is in relatively good shape but there is some definite deferred maintenance needed like a kitchen/bathroom remodel, removing the wall paper from 1978, floors/carpets, swimming pool refurbishing, etc.

I've called the number displayed and it's all about these Real estate classes on how to potentially make this amount.

Shame on you for telling your buyers "Isn't that wallpaper border in the den to die for?".  

Keep looking for lenders and JV partners, but I would concentrate on techniques that will be likely to happen.You won't want to hear this, I didn't when I was your age, but you sound quite young and by your own admission you're inexperienced....no crime there and I applaud the initiative you display.....but  I think hard money will be very tough for you.  

Why is Denver immune to what every major city has displayed?

We took out wood paneling on the walls that had 3 layers of smoke infused wall paper beneath it (really should have just ripped out the drywall...).  

Well run buildings often have them clearly displayed in the lobby for all to see.  

Thanks @Ron Herrera & @Charles SmithThe property actually looks great - probably will need to put in 2-3k to remove the ugly wallpaper but the house is in great condition...there's really no other  issues. 

I get the general idea of why a cash offer is better, it's quicker, more secure, probably won't fall through in escrow, can display POF.But other than that, if you are underwritten and already approved for a loan amount, what's the huge difference if the seller still is going to get the same amount of money in the end, say $2M from a cash offer versus $2M from a person borrowing.

The tenant never knew this was the case, but it was clearly an instruction to me that alternative actions would be required should the tenant(s) begin to display problematic behavior.On more than one occasion those particular subtenants asked "what happens if I just walk away" and my response was always "remember, you signed a personal guarantee" never adding anything more and then changing the subject.Thankfully, I never had to engage a significant default with those that evolved into problem tenants (other than really late rents) and was able to resolve any issues through continuous communication with the tenant.
