Estimating new roof just a dangerous number like that for this forum's opinion will also lead to an inaccurate estimate, if it was a gable roof and 2ksf i'd say it's too high, if it were 40' x 50' and 25' pitch and 30 directions, Id say you're crazy.

Being a landlord while not making any money sounds like a non-ideal situation!

(I don't have MF yet but I believe the reasoning is the same).Now in my rental my tenant does pay but I also get a copy of all bills and notifications sent directly to me too so that I can keep an eye on things.

Bought a house for 24K needs about 6k in repairs rents from 800-1000 a month. (60-70k ARV)I'm interested in maybe doing a rent to own deal. can anyone point me in the direction how to to structure that deal?

This is only intended to give you a guideline to direct your conversation with these individuals.Incorporate an LLC with S-Corp designation that will be your main business.  

I never have an agent I always go directly to the agent that listed the property in my opinion it makes no sense to do it any other way  Think about it the listing agent is going to make a double commission if they sell to me  If they sell to you they make half the commission who do you think they're going to push for me or you drop your agent and calling the properties yourself 

While some are saying it's impossible to come out with free rent around Austin, I want to see if there might be someone on this site who can help find something that will be incredibly cheap for me (please don't just say it's impossible, thank you).Ideally I'd like to be located within ten miles of 78726 where I work my day job.

Honestly, if somebody can't afford to come up with $4,000-5,000 for a deposit (which ideally is returned to them anyway), I probably don't want them as a tenant.

I can make a quick purchase via my PayPal and have a private mover handle pick up from you due to my kind of work as i have no access to cash or pay the mover directly.

I would look over the BK plan again and see if it states somewhere that the mortgage payment is made directly to lender or BK court.
