Thanks all, and I agree this has been an interesting discussion, from what I thought to be cut and dry to a cloud if gray.

I look in the Somersworth, Rochester, and Farmington are, but as far as the MLS those seem to have dried up recently.

alas, that was true back east as well. people waiting in the "wee hours" for said type stores to open. here- it is not known to be the most helpful place, even as far as home depots go... i choose my local miner's whenever possible as i get personalized service. they know me, they help me shop, they truly assist. took a client in the other week for us to finish up his back yard space (i designed the xeriscaping complete with dry creek bed etc. after the interior finished) it was time to explore the patio furniture, fire pit etc. said "please let's go to the store i know" to client. we found all the finishing touches exactly as had been imagined, had the best service, got the delivery scheduled easily, received discount (and points!)

I really do like the property though.....in addition to the attic it also has an awesome basement...8ft ceilings, two exits and plumbing, and it appears dry.

Use a piece of never-rot moulding over the window sill and some vinyl/plastic trim around the tub and under the window sill if it would cover up any bad looking areas.  

Started doing pretty well until it dried up and finally had to get out summer of 2008. 

She says she put towels on it and it fell but the picture shows the toggle bolt came through the dry wall so she obviously used it as a grab bar.

In short, I think you could hit some nice singles and doubles if you did it right (buy right, fix right, sell high) but probably no home runs (then your downside is also limited as you don't run into, in theory, roof, electric, plumbing, exterior rot, etc.)..

Seems pretty cut and dry if you need every penny of this transaction because you are close to insolvent then closing the transaction the cheapest way possible might make the most sense.
