I highly recommend knowing what your rehab cost is going to be, add a reserve amount and make sure you know where those funds are coming from.

people get sucked in on the high return.. high return is high risk

I was a high-end builder and I could not count my time working on properties, even when adding a room or more.

I got a quote for the two projects and I just wanted to get your opinions if you think these are good estimates - high, low, or fair?

I have been able to substantially increase the rents during this period of time with having not much of an impact on the tenants. 

I am undereducated on most other states but I imagine CO, CA, TN, NY etc all have thriving locations as well, just unsure about their regulations and returns especially in the high tax states.

In fact high bidder was a well known foreclosure property buyer I had previous dealing with.  

Partner Driven was interested in the Foss Ave deal in Drexel Hill, PA, due to its high profit potential.

Wishing you luck on a possible MTR and acquisition from property.

Currently with a high income for Ohio of combined 450k.
