@ John Blackman  How long do you anticipate this property to sit on the market?

If it goes beyond the anticipated closing date, I will not extend, and I won't be selling."

My clients have enjoyed coming into the area at a modest price, with the anticipation of future value increases.

I bought a portable induction burner from Costco in anticipation of not having gas available in my Honolulu retirement condo.  

I know there are different advantages and disadvantages to both, but any input would be greatly appreciated.I do anticipate my son will go to college.

I anticipate self insuring once we get north of 30. 

I've got $1000 in the e-fund and savings accounts fully funded for anticipated large expenses over the next year (Kids camp, school and car repairs), so I feel I'm prepared for 2016.  

(Anticipated time frame, 18 months).

ARV will be ~$165 and i anticipate $1,900-2,100/m.If you're willing to do work, they are there.  

Negotiate with them.Go back to sellers preferred lender and lay out your personal financials, 2 years tax returns, property experience and value to the project, business plan -including professional management co, partnership arrangements, specifics of the property in question: current income/expenses and income/expenses you anticipate after taking control, etc..
