How many cents on the dollar are typically salvaged?

Option prices must be paid as a lump sum, accepting any payments over time is financing the option, the option reduces the price so you're accepting payments that in the end reduce the price, that is financing in all states.If you accept chickens for the option, there will be a value to the chickens and that's fine.If you allow an additional credit for the eggs to be received in the future, that too has a value, a value received over time that is applied to the purchase price is financing and that too goes to all barn yards.

I placed ads on Craigslist, Zillow and put a sign in the yard.  

Get above the median, 3-4B, 2 Bath, fenced in yard, good floor plan, etc. 

Also they have a large townhome/ master planned community at Taylor Yard on San Fernando coming up.  

A typical vacancy period costs an investor several thousand dollars in lost rental income, mortgage payments, touch up painting, yard maintenance, utilities, etc.Your goal should be setting a rental rate that is in line with market rents but encourages the tenant to stay for multiple years in order to minimize vacancies.Our philosophy is to set the rents ever so slightly below market rents.

Original investor offer was too good to be true but again trash in the yard and in the house turns people off. 

I use craigslist and yard signs with some success to generate buyer interest.

I will definitely take on the responsibility of mow as the property does not have too large of a yard.
