Hi everyone! My name is Monty, and I’m based in Freeport, Florida. I’m looking to invest in nearby areas, focusing on fix-and-flip projects and new ground-up construction. With 30 years of residential construction exp...

You could structure the deal with seller financing to bridge the gap.Possible offer structure:-Purchase Price: $170K - closer to actual value-Down Payment: Low or zero down to conserve cash-Interest Rate: 3%-5% - or better yet, 0% if the seller will agree-Monthly Payments: Interest-only or deferred until the sale-Balloon Payment: Full payoff in two years when you sellIf he wants $200K, you can still make an offer of:-$170K purchase price + $30K as a second lien due at closing-Seller carries $170K at a low interest rateHe would feel closer to his number, but you still keep within reasonable investment limits.2.

I'm not sure if they still have that in this current rate environment but they do exist. 

Our occupancy rates have been 65-95% during the peak.

I have five houses in Memphis area, and the biggest problem has been finding a good property management company. 

Hi @Briley RoeNice to hear that you made the first step in investing.Looking at the deals, I would need more information, but per the data that you have, the Cap Rate is within a good acceptable amount.Cash on cash is low, but depending on the area that you are the appreciation will catch up.
