I can see that someone has tried repeatedly to put sealant around this vent, but apparently it's not helping.  

Happy to help

Let me know if we can help you with them very competitive and fast closing private bridge/rehab loan for one of your properties.

I help a lot of my out-of state clients find amazing SFH and MFH deals here that are cashflowing, hitting the 1% rule, and have tons of appreciation.

Thank you again for any input and help!

welcome to biggerpockets and please reach out if you need boots on the ground here in jacksonville or help with the rehab.

It would help us to understand the attainability of your goal if you would mention how many flips you have under your belt already.Assuming you are experienced, then I'd say move forward, full speed ahead--you can do it.If you are inexperienced, I would respectfully suggest you change from a $$$-oriented goal to a ### of transactions goal.Why?

@Jason BabosHi Jason,It is not too much if you have built a team to help you.

When I saw Antoine Martel from FlipSystem Posting Advertisement on social media like this:"You only need $10K ~ $30K to invest in RealEsate doing Flipping and make 100% ROI in 4 months""My clients in FlipSystem averagely spend 4 hours in managing each Flip Project""We help you to quite your JOB in couple of months by doing Flipping""We have few hundreds of success happy client - (Actually there might be few hundreds of clients losing their hard working money)"And lots of other advertisement stating: "Easy, Fast, Low RISK" in their programI thought: "Wow, doing Flipping is so easy and profitable and low-bar to enter in, I should join their program and start make money!"

The middle ends up either trying to occupy the lowest-end housing or being displaced altogether, with no one out there to help them.
