No sweat.

Working with your hands in a trade will set you up well for skills you will be needing especially if you want to add "sweat" equity in a unit.

Some of them also have union jobs that provide unemployment checks all winter long while they work on their side projects.The real money in house flipping comes from sweat equity.

In this area, I knew my sweat equity wouldn’t go too far but felt good about the monthly rental income.

I can provide the cash to purchase and was thinking the partner would foot the rehab and sweat equity.

This does not imply that the sweat equity is not present, it just implies it is not converted to currency at this time.Now for the OP's question...   

After much sweat equity and cash dumped into it the house appraises for 88,000.

I still maintain my accounts with the various materials vendors and also maintain and refer out a lot of my subs and fellow contractors that I have worked with for years, but I'm also a hands on guy as well and don't mind putting the sweat behind it to make it work.

If the idea is to get a retail buyer with cash I guess that could work since let's say it needs $20K in work that still gives a homeowner 10% sweat equity off the bat.
