I hope there is a good decrease in cost as new units are high efficiency BOSCH boilers compared to the massive old behemoth that is a permanent fixture in the basement.  

I have done a few.. and well I guess we are just spoiled on the west coast with our very organized and efficient foreclosure disposition rules and methods..  

I know there are several ways to find motivated sellers but this one (listingbook.com) seems to be the easiest and most efficient way since 80% of FSBO houses are posted on there and also working with real estate agents?

I'm not a fan of painting cabinets, as the finish is not the same as a factory finish, and WILL wear easily. 

Don't let Contractors intimidate you but remember they're people too and provide a great, skilled, efficient service if done well.Good luck to you!

Price per lead is obviously a concern but I'm open to the idea of looking into more expensive options if they're more efficient.

Time is my enemy so efficiencies are invaluable.THX in advance!

I think that's a good strategy if you're looking to be more efficient with your offers. 

Determining what real estate strategy will aligns with your goals will help focus your research/networking and allow you to be more efficient in doing so.

Any  recommendations on the most efficient sizing of those units and what you would charge per month?
