Hey Bill Gulley - I think it just reads poorly above.

Finding comps isn't necessarily hard, but you begin to get vastly different numbers for houses that are pretty similar.Given that I am new to this and want to minimize my risk exposure on my first rehab deal, my first intuition is to just focus my search in the zip codes I can easily comp out and I know will limit my risk of basing my decision on bad data.

They're just a touch too small for code requirements, and since I can't rent the unit out to anyone else anyway, I don't think it's worth the expense to make them slightly larger.I do love all the unsolicited feedback about whether anyone else would make the same decision I'm considering.

@Matt Granger,Congrats on the decision to move on to something new!

Then make the best decision for you.
