It's 50/50 per your statement.  

So your value is 50% 

MRED prohibits sharing logon ID and Passwords. Any Realtor that gives this to a client is in violation of MLS rules.

Your risk in these C neighborhoods is comps/ARV and moving the property quickly. You can have any profits disappear quick on carry on costs and if you don't know your farm you may over improve to a point it won't appraise out or worse yet not get a buyer

you'd want to stud it out and insulate and drywall so there is room for mechanicals and the insulation is key.

On the outside you could cover it with 3/4" plywood, tyvek and the Hardi or Vinyl .  I like Hardi personally it has a more expensive look and good brand .  Other option Stuco. 

I use it on my flips.  It's easy to install and works and there is a good App to control it.

Tell your contractors like I do not to leave any tools on site.  

if your not getting showings the property is priced too high or the location is terrible.   

how's the floor plan?
