Quote from @Andrew Self: Previous apartment.

I believe it is over priced (originally for sale by owner for $280k,later listed through agent at $360k), but I feel like the seller may be open to a creative financing option.

@Shayan Sameer,The really brief answer is that most of TN is pretty affordable apart from Nashville, which is an expensive, supply-constrained metro.The median home price in Chattanooga, for example, is about $300,000, which is a little above your $200,000 budget.

If we can complete projects faster, we increase IRR and build trust.3) Market Risk- The longer it takes to complete a project, the more exposed you are to market fluctuations.This goes for all things Real Estate - BRRRRs, Flips, New Builds, Rehabs, etc.Real Estate is a wild ride I feel your pain, I've had this happen many times where the project is twice as long.

I feel like you've been given some awful advice in this thread.Husband and wife were both tenants.
