So, when you said you don't know about financing, does this mean you purchased all theses deals & renovations with cash? 

Strategy is to buy, renovate, rent out. 

A flipper buys a property with the intention of renovating the property in some manner and then selling for a profit.  

I really believe my renovation costs are estimated on the high side but it looks like I need to get the property for less than 100K.

My partner and I plan to get a hard money loan for the purchase and then use my self-directed IRA for the renovation funds.

Mold grows on the coil.The remaining units don't run as much, and we're undertaking some other renovations,  so we've decided to delay the replacement.  

Hi BP, here our scenario; husband is contractor and I'm a grad student almost finishing degree.We bough a foreclosure SFH on 2012 for 120K with an FHA loan and completely renovated (current value of the house is ~170K).  

And renovating that area can only help property values in the adjacent neighborhoods.

We have properties sell before they even go live through this type of exposure, and they have saved me thousands on staging fees by finding a buyer before I even need to Stage the house (I stage all my properties and build it in to the renovation costs).
