The nail salon that was there for several years moved out not long before the purchase and a barber shop moved in just before closing.

   - Don't anticipate many, if any, repairs other than nail hole and minor paint touch-ups   - Written into the lease that I can have prospective tenants visit while she's still there (with notice)   - There is room to increase rent by at least a couple hundred dollars/month (I made several improvements in the time that she's been      there) and it will still be reasonable   - She said she has a friend that may be interested in renting itPrimary Questions:   - The most interesting thing to me, at this point, is the friend - she is familiar with the property and may be able to move-in quicker than someone new (Disclaimer: I have not spoken to her yet, just spitballing).

Just wearing a REALTOR pin on your lapel is not a guarantee of your morals.A comm broker will get nailed for the same things as a resi broker by the REA (usually mis-handling of money.)

And you kind of nailed the hammer on the head when you said that it will depend on your market and the current and future trend it's going in.

Make sure there is nothing more than wood there, such as nails sticking out. 

Yup hit the nail on the head.  

The rest of the house was built well, with the hardest wood ive ever had to drive a nail into.

One of a few.Ultimately, I think @Joe Villeneuve you hit the nail on the head.

Also, the quicker it gets done, the sooner you can make money on it normally.Also...youtube tutorials are great, but if you have ever seen "nailed it" scenarios...I promise, this is not nearly as easy as it looks.I'll be in Orlando for the realtor conference in August, let me know if you want to grab Starbucks and talk rehab.I normally have at least 2 home sites going at any given time.
