I tend to think $150K - $200K is the sweet spot where the cash flow is ideal and you can avoid some of the riff raff. 

It's a pretty sweet deal

.- that’s sweet

At the company, I work with we are affiliated to a RE hedge Fund, which is pretty sweet if you need the financing, capital or if you do not have the capital we could take over the deal and pay you a 25% of the net profit once we sell it. 

We usually have to do one or two a loan.IMO they seem like cya for a distant underwriter.We make them short and sweet.

Lots of opportunities to buy great properties if you know what the look for (the sweet spot of property size/features as I like to tell my clients).

Dani,Unless your sweet spot is $350K+ houses, don't overthink the remodel.

Normally I would meet the dog and see if it is a sweet dog or not.

I've got my hands on a deal in Kitchener Ontario for a single family home at a sweet deal and ready and zoned for conversiontowards a triplex, in Kitchener, Onflip this property and make over $100,000 + in 6 months or buy and hold , ( great strategy would be the BRRRR strategy for this amazing place, you just need some sweat equity towards making it work as a true investment.

The short and sweet answer is:- you will need it to be habitable as determined by an appraiser if you're looking for a conventional loan.
