With 400K my initial thought is doing a BRRR/Flip that is close enough for you to be hands on.

A purchase of $209k, $15k rehab, and ARV of $240k doesn't get you any thing back after you factor in all of the closing costs to purchase and to refinance.

Some may tell you that you can systematize anything, but the problem is, every individual home is different (even the newer cookie cutter neighborhoods).Focus on two or three neighborhoods and know what a good deal looks like in those pockets.I would also temper your expectations as far as finding a lot of equity on MLS.  

For a buyer this should reduce their cash out of pocket to close which could help with barrier to entry.
