Welcome.

Is this for a rental unit?

Keep in mind that when you replace a bad unit, it is important as to WHY it went bad. If the condenser went bad, your lines could be back-filled with acidic sweat.

If not cleaned, this could shorten the life of any new unit installed substantially!

BINGO!

Cabinets for $1,000?!

Cali is not that cheap either.

Lowest level here is roughly $2,900 that is minimum for a Single Family "live in". Cheaper for a low level condo/apartment maybe.

I'd look more for $500-$700 for backsplash and $600 flooring as well. Pretty clean, quick overhaul you have planned.

Maybe you are using Short Sale as "bank owned"?

Welcome. I am in South Jersey :) 

Get started with the Search ;)

If you have family there that makes the choice more simple, if it was me of course.

Keep the liquid cash while renting for a short period to validate the market and business to yourself.

Pittsburgh is PERFECT for what you want to do. Many colleagues feel Pitt is the absolute best market in the nation, I tend to agree.

There are SO many options.

Personally, moving to a new place (which I have done) - I would set money aside and rent for a limited time (deadline).

Using cash to acquire a property. Also staying liquid and not attached to a home right away that you are living in. 

This is all said believing that the 100-138 will be ALL your funds for your flip.investing.

William,

What counties?
