I don't always take her suggestions but it gives me a good idea on what to do.Kitchen Gut (medium grade SS appliances & Granite) - about $40/sq ftHVAC - Duct work - $2.50/sq ftHVAC - Compressor - $1,750 + ($1.00/sq ft)HVAC - Heating Unit - $2,000Those are quick estimate numbers that I have found to be good for North Texas.

I can't imagine a TV or Radio spot.The contract between 2 parties cannot override regulations.Yes I agree, running a television commercial or radio ad for 1 wholesale property you have under contract wouldn't be the smartest idea...marketing something you don't own can definitely get you in trouble. 

Also, rolling the vested balance over sounds like a great idea as well.

It was his idea!!

I am currently considering the idea of getting certified as an appraiser, but would love to hear your suggestions.

I like your idea of passing lawn care back to them and giving them the $200 concession.

What are your ideas?

Does any one have any ideas on how to combine the two?

(Sorry if I am off, but you get the idea.)The question you should be asking yourself and a Real Estate Professional are all the same questions? 

@Daniel M Gibson sticking to fundamentals and your "gut" is always the best course.Unlike 99% of the investors on this site, my take is that investing for cash flow is a bad idea...it creates a jaundiced view of how things work...meaning that investing is about controlling assets as wisely as possible...not immediate cash flow.I use seller carried loans routinely because I'm in for the long haul (and I don't need rental income to survive)...as long as the purchase price makes sense, I could care less about income...the concept is debt paydown and future equity.
