    Where are you thinking of buying that can get a home around that price? In Knoxville those homes usually need extensive repairs - unless they are studio condos in not very attractive markets. Here such a creature would rent in the $1,300-1,600 range, but with some reno and cosmetics it would quickly move closer to the 1% per month golden rule. Remember that you’re one one rent raise from turning most properties profitable.

    I completely mis-read your question. Sorry. Rent-to-own is a unicorn here too. I know some investors here look toward central Alabama and Missouri for properties like that.
