Another thing about opportunity zones to keep in mind is that there's a lot of them some are in really risky areas but others are in great areas.

Have them determine the useful life of the big ticket items like roof, furnace, ac, electrical and plumbing and use that to determine what you need in reserves and consequently what you can afford to offer on the house.You'll also want to look at the cash flow in case of additional vacancies keeping in mind what the vacancy rate is in your area.

Also keep in mind non-rehab related costs such as holding costs (utilities, taxes, mortgage payments, etc) and selling costs (commissions - typically around 6% total, staging - if applicable, etc).

Mike, This may not be an issue for you, but keep in mind that coal and coal dust is acidic.

I'd also like to design a flyer the HR department could give to new hires who might be relocating from another state and another flyer for retiring employees.I have never worked for this size of company, so I don't know how they function.

I've established my line of credit, I already have an investing real estate agent in mind and I'm not afraid to personally do some of the work on these flips. 

Keep in mind that there is a ton of construction up there, and not sure how long it will hold out until it turns into a "concrete metropolis", that I fear takes over up and coming areas.

And bring on partners or form partnerships with people who are like minded and have the experience and leverage you and your firm will need to do business. 

It came to mind that your agent could request any documentation the owner has (rent roll/expense details/vacancy rate,etc.) to assist in decision making, but I assume some people may actually make offers only from pictures, purchase price, and rents.

If so you may have a harder time.I think @Brandon Turner talked about having the seller break each property out in a multi-property sale so that you can see their motivation and the value that the seller has in their own mind.
