Hey BP,I've been thinking recently on a topic that surprised me when I realized I had kind of thought this way my whole life and that is - going across the river to Illinois.To be more specific, I grew up in O'Fallon.

What kind of work will be needed for the turnover? 

Its kind of natural that you will probably attract more buyers in the beginning.   

Because you do see this kind of stuff all the time. 

So I'm looking into rentals, probably out of state since the California market is kind of high.My realtor says we can list the house for $1,010,000 now.

(What kind of splits?

It also depends on the kind of financing you have that will determine what may be a potential deal breaker, ie: if  you have an FHA loan and the house inspection comes back with multiple areas of chipping paint and the seller doesn't want to fix the issues.

Interesting opportunity kind of fell in my lap.

Devil's in the details of course but that's kind of a nutshell.

The smell is disgusting, and I actually ran outside and puked up my breakfast once.
