@Andrew MartelYou should have gotten the good faith estimate with the cost breakdown.

Plan to rent the house for between $1200-$1300/month.Rehab Needed: The house is in fairly good condition overall (solid foundation; new high efficiency furnace; newer water heater; updated electric), but we are estimating $25k in repairs.

You could write an additional condition into your offers that your ARV must equal or exceed the appraiser's ARV estimate.  

Insurance has a $2500 cap on mold mitigation (since the estimate yesterday JUST for mold is over $8100, trying to see if we can increase that number going forward).  

Emotions are ok when you get the check, not when you are estimating what the check will be.

But other than his estimate, no.

I would like to start buying some more, I have received some off market offers to buy properties close to 4 and 5%, one in particular I can estimate at all in costs of $120,000 bringing in almost $5000 a month gross. 

I'm ready to get more aggressive with accumulating more income property over the next 10 years.

The workshops cover various subjects from financing, wholesaling,, estimating repairs etc. http://dallasreig.com/ This group meets once a week on Saturday during the lunch hour.

Tomorrow I plan to have a contractor come give me an estimate to rehab.
