@Ayman Elmasik what you can do is bring one of your potential buyers by the property and have them look at it and make you an offer on the property.

Small price to pay to avoid potentially huge problems. 

You can search for listings with "estate" in the Owner field to find estate properties with potentially motivated or disinterested sellers.

Im looking at this seeing a good money maker due to the various sources of potential income.

Even so that I'm dabbling in raw land investing because its a similar niche market that has the potential to be even less of a hassle.

I don't intend to let the potential buyer choose what/how they want something done. 

If you sell for $160K and buy for $90K there is a potential taxable boot of $70K.  

As I am doing my research in the Oakland market, a lot of the math is starting to look slim in terms of cash flow so I started to study properties that could possibly be renovated with condo conversion potentials as a value add opportunity.

The house is in somewhat rough conditions to my standards but it has amazing potential.

I haven't ruled out Las Vegas as a potential market to enter because I believe it's trending in the right direction but as you mentioned, I would like to do more research in areas where the ROI and cash-on-cash returns fit my criteria.
