Hey @Dylan Tettemer I would agree with @John Walker give yourself some padding for security on your numbers if you havent already.If repairs SHOULD be $20k I'd tack on at least another $5k for unforeseen things.Add a couple weeks to your rehab timeline and an extra month of holding costs, as well as figuring in for a lower rent... all this just to be on the safe side.
