With all of that in mind, I think it would really be dependent on where you see that specific market going.

Quote from @Torianne Baley: Hi George,Do you mind sharing the lender you found who accepts the 500 credit score and will loan $300k There are lenders out there but the risk is very high so your rate will be 13-15% plus the loan to value will most likely need to be less than 60% (or even 50%).

This may be because (1) until recently interest rates were trending lower so if the lender is getting a higher rate on subject note than he can obtain on new note there’s no monetary incentive to call the note (2) in the past technology did not exist to identify the property transfers (ten years ago county recording docs were not online) and (3) the lenders rather collect payments than own property.  

Zillow has a lot of valuable information, but keep in mind that it's algorythms don't work in every market. 

Also, keep in mind that some markets have a requirement that landlords have a locally registered agent (manager).5.

If you don't mind my asking, how did you find the deal to begin with, and did you have some hint that owner financing might be on the table from the get-go?  

Guaranteed value appreciation or maintenance.Although you said you don’t mind high risk.  

What's the details on the deal with firstwatch if you don't mind sharing. 

Pets yes but keep in mind they do require more cleaning, maintenance. 

Indeed, to stay in compliance with fair housing, you need to treat each tenant the same, so that's something to keep in mind.
