Out off the 10 showings, 7 people have asked I lower the rent because its high based off on Zillow and propose $1,150 or lower........ 

As for the comps that show their proposed value of $365K and you can compare them against the ones that you used to come up with a value of $290K.  

For instance, if there is a cap on fees chargeable for a given task (such as you cannot charge more than $10 to produce a newsletter -an actual term from one of the Uniform Acts floating around out there), make sure that your proposal does not violate that.  

In your example, you are proposing to negotiate a purchase price lower than the appraisal value, and then after the sale put new debt on it with the higher appraisal value thus taking cash out from the new LTV? 

If the numbers make sense, you could propose a sub 2 deal and still offer to pay the agent their commission, pay the seller for their "equity" for the grant deed.

I found several turnkey providers that appear to have great property management, but will only manage properties they sell you and  found their prices to be a bit unrealistic for the neighborhoods they were proposing.  

Here's a link to the application so you can see what's involved.http://www.co.maui.hi.us/DocumentCenter/Home/View/79193There has also been recent amendments proposed to the County code to require ownership of the home for five years prior to application to prevent "newcomers" from buying property and turning it into short term rentals.

I have been renting this place from the seller, he finally agrees to sell it to me, so I proposed we do this by owner and through our attorneys.
