B grade area and good schools.I think property 1 will be easier to get under list price but not sure of vacancy rate since it's a smaller town.

Quote from @Shawn Sopic: When you bought it, it didn't have A/C, so I suspect other buyers will do the same.Installing A/C may not provide a dollar-for-dollar return, but it can make the home more attractive to buyers and enable you to sell it faster.If you spend $10,000 to install the A/C, you can expect it to increase the sales price $5,000 or less.

Are there shifts in rental prices, vacancy rates, or investment strategies that are worth discussing?

I’ll be investing out of state and I’m looking to acquire a turnkey duplex at a cap price of $100K.

Looking forward to the responses and building meaningful connections. - Brian

For any Investor Experts out there, I can also help with property analysis/renovations to bring some value to the table.Thanks for taking the time to read this post and looking forward to talking with you.

If I could chime in to help in the search:be sure to find an accountant who is willing to grow with you, and is not too high priced fee-wise.

@Eli KingThe seller would need to contact the servicer of their loan and confirm it’s assumable.You would then need to qualify with that servicer plus have the funds to cover the difference between what remains on the loan and the purchase price for the home.

Purchase price: $63,750 Cash invested: $13,000 This was my VERY FIRST deal.

If the house were minimally livable based on other prices of houses in the neighborhood, excluding the extra land what do you think the house is worth if you had to sell it?
