The deal is fully funded but I know of some similar opportunities.

We backed out of the deal instead of looking for other options.

If you are a solid investor focused agent, I’d be game to discuss land development + ground up construction of a well designed building you'll be fine in Fort Lauderdale or anywhere in South Florida. you will probably need more liquidity than existing but the deals are much better. 

Since this is an auction deal I have a hard deadline to close.

Or if it was offered in the competition because that might be a deal breaker for some people if it's not there.

That means you can spend up to $70,000 on the purchase price and renovations and it would still be considered a good deal, according to the 70% rule. 

@Shawn Faris this is something every Landlord deals with at some point.

The best advice I can give you there is not to buy into a deal just to buy into a deal.

I've been an entrepreneur for about 15 years now and since my first adventure as a entrepreneur was in a construction related trade, I consider myself very handy and somehow capable to deal with contractors.

What software should I take advantage of that will help me analyze deals, comps, market research, etc.
