I've also seen a good amount of flip potentials there. 

As for the electric bill you went out of your way and spend beyond a necessary amount to insure their comfort.

Hi @Eddie Wright, I would get the exact amount of back taxes that are owed from the tax collector's office and make it VERY clear to the buyer that they will have to pay those costs as part of the closing.

What is the smallest amount of money you have lost a bid by?

@Jeff CopelandYes, both properties sit on the same parcel.At the current condition the duplex is in, I dont think it would refinance for the amount needed to purchase it.

I have a tenant I need to try and renegotiate the amount because it is not profitable for me to rent at the initial negotiated amount.

There is always a good amount of people willing to rent per room.

If so, what down payment amount was their rate quote based on or what LTV was it based on?

Getting a mortgage in my personal name is not an option.I’m preapproved for larger amounts.

There will be a moderate amount of rehab.
