Based on rent of $1,695, I think you'll be lucky to get an appraised value of $160k with a CoC return well under 2%.

I highly recommend a well-qualified REALTOR who works with investors and knows how to help you best.7.

(And for other brothers who might need it as well, just dm me.)Best of luck, bro!

@Travis TimmonsI had the same reaction as you did, but I held off on posting since I don't yet invest in STRs (I'm all LTR so far, and looking into my first MTR).Buying an STR "to offset income" makes me nervous as well...

@Ivan Castanon I am in the Tampa area as well!!!  

I would go the VA loan if you can, no pmi will help your debt ratio as well.  

So you can see why mentioning that solar benefits from tax credits without including the fact that every other form of energy does as well comes across as remiss to anyone who knows a little bit about energy. 

All well and good.

Well you can probably get around $70k out of your $300k property on a HELOC.

Quote from @Havital Miltz: I do not know that if someone is in the hospital you can force them to close, I am not an attorney, but I doubt any court will find in your favor, closings do not always happen exactly on the day that is planned, even if everyone is healthy and well, the wholesaler here is not the reason for the delay so I am not sure what exactly you can sue him/her for, they are also being held up due to the seller not being wellJust give the person some time to get out of the hospital, closing will probably not happen the very next day either, this is really extenuating circumstance.
