The house has to be completely knocked down due to a fire but the asking price is only a few thousand dollars.

Year one, you should be able to knock out about all the debt.

I'm currently knocking doors for lead generation. 

You won't have vacancy if you price the rent correctly you'll have people knocking on the door to rent. 

Can you knock $10-15k off the price?

Ex: Door knocking, Driving for dollars combined with skip tracing, Cold calling, bandit signs, and visiting city hall to gather Tax, Probate, and property Liens etc.For a higher marketing budget you can implement strategies such as: Direct mail, voicemail drops, email marketing.Word of advice: Marketing is the heart of the business, you can either choose to dig with a shovel or dig with a spoon, but they will both get results.Hope this helps,Cheers!

You do not want to build a business  that with one accident it knocks out your entire company.

Knocking on doors is the only way I know. good luck!

The biggest piece of advice I can mention is to make sure that every single I is dotted twice, and every T is crossed multiple times because once the city of Boston is aware you have taken on any sort of project be prepared to become every well introduced to city inspectors who are going to come knocking frequently.

Like, I am thinking "new water heater, replace a roof, add a deck, knock out some walls, update something else, etc."
