It could save you the trouble of finding a new tenant and dealing with vacancies.

Ok, so here are a few more deals I found.

With media giving Florida condos a bad rap right now it can mean finding the best deal in 5 yrs on one. 

@Luka Milicevic makes an excellent point: the Greater Nashville area is tough on rookie investors because housing prices are too high, rents are too low, and it’s hard to find deals that pencil out.If you’re open to investing in areas outside (but still close to) Nashville, I’d suggest checking out Chattanooga.

Figure out the appropriate price point and you can determine which deal makes more sense to you.

Research emerging neighborhoods, find properties using MLS, Zillow, and Redfin, explore financing options, form partnerships, analyze deals using BRRRR calculators, and manage the rehab process.

At this point he has not offered me any deals just dollar for dollar value exchange when the work is done. 

So then it should be safe to assume that the calculator is warning me that this isn't the best deal.

Does anyone have any experience with contacting the homeowners to strike a deal?
