I'd encourage you to think about Des Moines as a possible investment target but I'd also encourage you to think about it as a lot more than that. 

I don’t use it for accounting I just have the money go into my checking account and then I do all my actual accounting in quick books.

People will screw you in a quick second and not think nothing of it.

The additional acre added back to the property and the house fixed up the ARV is somewhere around  150 - 180k and I would probably price it to sell quickly. 

@Michael Glaspie Depends on the size and how quickly the seller can provide a rent roll, leases and financials incl bank statements.

Larger houses can be a bit more difficult as a missed item can balloon quickly into a large overage.
