"What do you need to move on from this property" "If I can help you by allowing you to move only what you want, not perform any repairs, not have to worry about the lawn/pool/snow removal, etc what would you take for a cash offer" IMHO once someone moves out there is always going to be a need to do paint and flooring to get it in shape to sell to a retail buyer.

I'm getting them into tiptop shape before putting them on the market.

I got the building for a steal, but it was in VERY poor shape. 

That experience of having to balance work and school helped shape me into a frugal person and understand the value of the dollar.

The house is in good shape.  

But if they're in good shape, I'd throw my remodeling dollars at other things first. 

I'm an investor by night and an agent by day (which helps me learn the trends of this area,) so I'm fortunate to have been able to learn a lot about these areas, so maybe I can help share both a bit of info mixed in with some personal opinions.First off, anything that's in Conejo-Moorpark-Simi area is not going to meet any BP rules of thumb for cash flow or flipping, unless you get some insane off-market deal.

Hi Will,Like others here I think you are in good shape.

Under my understanding of your description, the cash infusion from the bank is being used to fund the project, so there will be no big post-rehab cash infusion (unless you somehow sell the property for enough to cover the refinanced loan + make some substantial profit).A possible option would be to get the property in rental shape and make the repairs over time as you accumulate cash from rental income - this would help you avoid taking on debt (and likely decreasing your monthly cashflow).

It seems that new trend is with all this healthy food vending machines.
