An elderly woman has been living in it forever.The HML is really not ideally, Im still looking for other options, although time is always of the essence, and we dont have all- cash in hand.

I would not have been able to get a woman that is accustom to the finer things in life to stay married to me while I was homeless for 7 months trying to build a business without the proper coaching.

Austin, Boston,Tampa, Raleigh , Denver , Seattle etc.Boomtowns for the young and smart.You are in a very enviable position to have the option to go to where both the great Real Estate deals and the 25 year old woman are hot and available.Some of the most popular cities for the young and educated have historically bad rent to value ratios.

My daughter and I spent about 4K on cosmetic improvements- it’s really cute and cozy inside now. 

A woman overheard me say that I was a rehabber and then asked, "So you're a contractor?"

That's cute, looks like she's learning from you.

Second, the agent representing the woman who bought the home really must have been pretty good, convincing their buyer to offer so much.

If you're the type that can sell a ketchup popsicle to a woman wearing white gloves you should have no trouble convincing a savvy customer that long term its worth it.

That is an investment in your fellow man/woman, and is priceless. 

Here's the situation:After a direct marketing campaign, I got a call from a woman that owns two parcels of land within city limits in Southern Mississippi.
