I always say, if you have the deal, the money will come.

The necessities are floors (LVP), windows and paint for the interior.

The goal would be to find a duplex in your area, live in one side and rent out the other.

Until I had my own I just used the state long term lease agreement.

After getting a good amount of equity in the house for future HELOC funding, I was going to move out of it and use the property as a rental utilizing a lease option, or, rent to own agreement. 

In this case the buyer is asking for the seller to concede the difference between the sales price and the appraisal price. 

Are you looking for the info to invest there?

Or, rather, what the tax code said. 

Also, expect deferred maintenance.Your #1 concern should be, can you fix the problems the seller has or will you eventually have to dump the property also?

Huge thanks to Filam company for their support throughout the process.
