One of the key reasons I and others invest in real property is because of how easy it is to obtain a loan on the equity position of your property.  

Are you looking to sell as turn-key; if so you need to do repairs, get tenants on leases, and sell? 

I contacted the seller and was given the key codes to look inside the property, so I did and took many pictures.

The key for us was establishing our goal(early retirement) and than our mode (rentals).

The key is looking for something to fix up and making the right rehab work for the area you are in.

That number is key to determining if this project could be successful.
