So I understand I will have to come to the closing table on a refinance with about $68,000 + closing costs.

With each closed transaction, I felt a glimmer of hope rekindle within me.

100/sqft on a full gut sounds about right - This includes new roof, siding, windowns, electrical, framing, etc - basically everything besides foundation and structureFor a more cosmetic rehab with minimal expenses and alterations to electrical, plumbing, etc you are looking close to 50-60sqftFeel free to reach out anytime and I'd be happy to see your numbers and the project. 

Usually what I do is either list other rental properties I may have in the area already rented by section 8 tenants or go to the MLS and print out recent rental (closed) properties with similar amenities.
