@Jeff Brotherton, what drove the cost above asking? What are you basing your potential rent on? From the information on Zillow, it was listed for rent back in October for $1075 and didn't rent. Do you know why it didn't rent? Is there some change in the area that you feel has driven rent prices up to almost $1200. Is there an HOA fee associated with the property? How do you plan on tackling the cost associated with the roof and A/C? Those things never last as long as you think. I spent over $30k in new roofs last year. So make sure you have a plan for what could be $8000-10000 worth of repairs.
