Basically it’s about 2500 sq ft rectangle building with a kitchen and his and her restrooms in the middle and 2 large open rooms, one on each end.

Look up Pace Morby and his groups, etc, they sometimes source homes that don't have as high of an entry fee as buying a home the normal way would. 

Many states have laws against it and you run the liability and risk of pissing buyers and sellers off as the middle man.

Actually the pacing of sending is what I've been wanting in reireply.  

I would like to focus on the middle income bracket, since I believe that in Trinidad we do not have enough high quality offerings for young people/couples and middle income families in progressive neighborhoods.

I just purchased a 1960s ranch in Middle Tennessee.

I will try to find actual real-world values and maybe with the two methods I can find a middle ground?

At least, that was true the last time I checked, which was probably in the middle of the crash, when there were so many foreclosures to be bought.

You are also not in the middle of nowhere living outside of Boston so you should not have an issue finding people to work on the house. 

That should abate in the next 12-18 months, and as new units stop hitting the market at their current pace, Phoenix may see solid growth, especially as the market seems to have solid inbound demand fundamentals, good jobs, tech presence, etc.
