Fix and flip and rehab contractor SFR Copperas Cove, Texas

I am looking to purchase a home in Copperas Cove, Texas to potentially do a fix and flip. 

I am trying to find a few things. 1st thing is does anyone know a great contractor in the Copperas Cove, TX area who could potentially provide a rehab estimate and that someone has worked with before? 

Secondly I am potentially interested in investing with someone for this property. 

The comps nearby sold for $155k & $147k. The house is 4 bed 2 bath and needs a good amount of work. I assumed $30 per sq/ft for rehab cost on the 2000 sqft house. My numbers looked like this:

ARV ($145,000)- $60000 (rehab budget) - $13,600 (money costs, assuming 7 month hold time) - $8700 (realtor fee) - $2310 (holding costs) - $4350 (closing costs).

House is listed at $65,000. I will plan on offering $35k. This would be my 1st fix and flip, does any one have any experience they can share or potentially anyone that might like to potentially do this type deal?

Thanks Aaron

    I see that you’re from San Diego California so I don’t really know if you understand and have a clear understanding of the coppers cove. 

     But do understand the coppers cove market is vastly different than California market and that property seems like not a deal. 

     Mind you I don’t know all the numbers but do understand the coppers cove market they can take you three are for six months to sell a property on market in the market here is starting to cool. 

     I have rental properties both in Copperas Cove in Kaline so if you want to talk more in depth let me know.

    @Aaron Gilmore

    Copperas Cove while not the hottest market in Texas, is hot enough that you will not get an offer accepted at just over 50% of list

    Where are you getting your comps ? My guess is a neighboring subdivision of new homes is being used and the subject property was built in the 1980s
