Even if you end up not using or agreeing with it, it is a good way to educate yourself.Yes - the fact that tenants pay their own electrical / gas / heating will reduce your expenses by a few points but you are expecting to run this property with only $25,000 in total expenses (less then 25%!). 

What are the realistic expectations of getting the medical and car debt reduced.  2 Would it be possible for myself to negotiate with the creditors on their behalf.Thank you for your input.

I understand that if I sold the house within first three years of moving out, I would not have to pay property gain taxes over 250K as a single person.However, I also heard from an agent something into this effect that if I don't sell the house within the three years and even if I moved back in after three years and stayed for more than three years the property gains cap maybe reduced to a smaller amount than 250K.

I saw this last time too where all these flips shows came out, seminars from educators were rampant, news stories were once again touting real estate as in vogue and a juggernaut that can't be stopped.I know agents right now buying cars,big houses, trips out the yang thinking (this is awesome).I am trying to make smart investments today and hold a certain liquidity position to take advantage of discounted assets in the future.There is talk that Trump's plan for reducing corporate taxes and road improvements might extend the cycle out 2 to 3 more years but nobody knows for sure.

The Moving Fee as a form of income to low income family is a toxic pill because 1_the moving fee is taxable by the City and State 2_Additional income could get their Earn Income Credit and Housing Assistance reduced and disqualified  3_Additional income could make the low income family disqualified for Medical benefit which force them paying out of pocket for Obama care or penalized by IRS for being uninsured.In that meeting, only small owners showed up giving testimonials and protest.

Really your relator should be the one telling you about what contingencies he can put in the offer but I will tell you a couple that are pretty standard that can be used to back out.Inspection and due diligence period contingency, 15 days or whatever you want really during which time you can inspect the property and if you find something you can back out or reopen negotiations with the seller to reduce the price or fix the problems.
