Sounds like prices vary based on each situation but I'm looking at $15k.  

Based on your description of the situation, you're not going to cashflow while you live there, but the question you should really ask is, will it cashflow after you move out? 

(And it seems there's at least some chance it doesn't pass at all, based on the opposition they're setting.)

FYI we've changed our approach entirely and have lower fee initial entry points to avoid the challenges of long term project based arrangements so we can catch issues much sooner.

Demand for short-term rentals is based on emotions, the allure of this view or that amenity or this undefined "feel" or "design" of a place.I'd love a pamphlet that says simply, "Hot tubs increase gross annual revenue by $22,000."

Comparatively speaking to other large American cities, the cost of living is cheaper.The city provides a wide range of communities that may accommodate various tastes as well as a rich cultural experience.Austin, Texas: Young professionals are increasingly choosing Austin as their destination because of its robust employment market and lively culture.Although there are many prospects for both conventional and innovative financing solutions, the real estate market may be competitive.Before making a decision, consider visiting these areas, exploring the local real estate market, and connecting with local investors and real estate professionals.

Based on that math yes, you'd clear a couple hundred dollars after all debts and expenses, not the worst spot to be if you're not necessarily needing the cashflow/trying to live off of it, but instead are focusing on playing the long game. 

Echoing what @Rick Albert said, see what your market has, based on what you want to charge for future rents.  

Since you'll need to undo the recent renovations and don't want the furnishings, it makes sense to base your offer on the home's previous value.

Multi-family properties allow you to employ several different investment techniques.
