A PM company who focuses on S8 definitely knows the ins and outs of the market.

See properties sitting on the market for a long time, every market is different, my market anything over 30 days is a long time.

This is a good strategy for people who don't want to dive super deep into creative financing and marketing for properties because that strategy has a large learning curve and upfront and ongoing costs.

I have been reading the online resources about getting started, searching the market, and even doing tours, but I am hesitant to jump in and buy a house as I have quite a large amount of student debt.

Scrolling through social media, I stumbled on a house near Charlotte—fresh paint, new kitchen cabinets, updated bath, even a brand-new HVAC—but way under market value.

The house was on the market for a few weeks, I submitted my offer after the seller reduced the price to $24K.

Quote from @Alex Olson: Kansas City is a great market for Build to Rent and traditional garden style apartment complexes.  

Also, if the market shifts and values drop while you wait out the two years, you might not come out ahead.

I would use the one you signed as a guide and in the space where you can add special conditions, put in the information related to the repairs, contingencies etc.....I'm not sure if you are in a market like NY that requires an atty to buy and sell, but if not then I would use the state contract and modify as necessary.
