A 3/2 or even 3/1 on the other hand should rent at $1250 - $1400 all day long.You can probably find comps to support the $120k price and if the home is nicely renovated it may actually sell for that much, but I believe most 2/1 homes selling at this price are the ones selling to owner occupants, such as parents buying a home for Jr to live in during college.

That takes getting the roof fixed, the AC running and probably putting in some dehumidifiers and running them until the wood measures below a reasonable humidity.

@Johnson Michael Agree that flipping probably makes more sense in the area.

@Garrett Haefele I've heard the same bad things about NY and NJ from other investors so we avoid those states as well.We're doing good in Cook county on a few notes we have but we're probably just lucky since the borrowers haven't contested FC.

Probably the most crucial part of the BRRR is pulling your money out at the end.
