Quote from @Theresa Harris: How much will the renos cost and what is the after reno value?

Quote from @Theresa Harris: I've seen cases where if there was an actual leak, the utility company gave the owners a break on the water bill once the leak was fixed. 

If you can survive the worst case, are happy with the realistic case, and ecstatic with the best case, then you go forward.

I never expected to have these feelings because my last deal was a full gut rehab, and I survived that.

Quote from @Theresa Harris: Quote from @Nicole Heasley: What state is the property in? 

Harry what categories are holding you back?

@Theresa Harris the mortgage is around 500 and the tax insurance is about 200 a month and the rent should clear it by at least 500 leaving that for repairs

I’m sure I will survive that first post and eventually get better at it.

We survived then too.Finally, I'm personally of the opinion that this 'brinksmanship' is good no matter which side is doing it.

The tourist industry will bounce back, but it may take a couple years so you may want to wait a little longer before purchasing something.If the tourist industry really takes a hit in 2020, you could see a lot of investors sell their vacation rentals cheap just to survive.
