A lot of these people on here from the coastal areas will snub their noses at these cheap properties but you can find some pretty good homes for less than $20k.

Those lists probably change pretty quickly.

Sounds like the other posters have pretty much answered the question.

All have different guidelines surrounding what you must use for qualifying payments.With deferred loans, however, it's pretty consistent that you must use 1% of the balance as the qualifying monthly payment.One work-around is to go on an income based payment plan. 

I'm open to pretty much anything from Lake Co. to La Porte Co.

Again, the laminate flooring, the baseboard, and the carpet are completely separate matters, but really, as the other commentators above are explaining here (and they are also both experienced self-managed landlords with multiple holdings) this is probably not something you're going to collect on pretty much anywhere.I'm sorry, Angelique, but my recommendation is to eat the expense.

Also your ARV is pretty high unless this is a great spot in EAV.  

I'm super handy and can complete all the repairs pretty much myself but I'm reluctant to go much more out of pocket without a very good appraisal.

For example, I'm a pretty good carpenter but I'm terrible at wiring.I'm a big supporter of the best way to learn is to do mentality.
