That would be a win as well!

On the positive our city wide candidates that win are mostly moderates regardless of their party.  

Quick back of the napkin numbers I have run:Target Purchase Price: $370kEstimated Renovations: $40-50k (aiming for 2 month reno)Target sales price: $450k (this is based on my own research using county property records, Zillow, Trulia, and Redfin for neighborhood sales w/in past 12 months - not perfect COMPs, I know, but what I have to work with)This is my first foray into this type of thing, so unsure if an opportunity exists, so please let me know your thoughts and help me understand if I'm off in any of my thoughts or am missing something.  

It's an easy win/win. 

It will be win-win as the tenant will still pay less in overall electricity costs, and I get the panels paid for, increasing property value.Also, if you CAN find renters who care about clean energy, I would think all the more likely these will be AWESOME tenants.

Slow and steady wins the race.  

If you swing for the fences every time with larger projects you can strike out a lot and the occasional home run might not win you the game.So you keep buying and then keep residual cash for the next downturn and load up when it happens.The people that are not conservative and grow to big too fast can go under when a market shifts and they did not plan accordingly.

Life happens and people sometimes have to move or they might win the lottery and want to pay off their home.

Overall, it has been a great journey, learned tons, and built our team deep - so it is a Win.

It is an involved process but you can win if you have the evidence.
