If you also buy a heavy rehab with razor-thin reserves, one bad contractor or inspection can wipe you out fast.Instead:• Leave a cushion from that $50K• Aim for a property where you can live in one unit and the other unit covers most of your payment• Keep at least $8K–$15K in reserves after closing4.

If I could do that, I might get the property for what I'd originally intended, plus the owners would get some badly needed money instead of a big fat NOTHING by losing it in the auction.  

Lastly, don’t get over levered or into a bad deal because you are so ambitious.

Dogs are generally not as bad.

That's not necessarily a bad thing, but going with somebody who's more familiar with investors ought to be a better thing.

If you spot paint in my experience it will need a full repaint quicker and looks bad in the meantime.

That being said, you must sort through a fair amount of bad deals to find the good ones, and good is relative to the current market.

Lets say we do it for the sole purpose of $300k invested brings in $2k of positive cash flow.. that's an 8% cash on cash return, so cost seg aside, that's not bad right?

Second, the guest is telling everyone to avoid this property like the plague (expect bad platform review and Google reviews).So while AI might save you time temporarily it might cost you more time, maintenance and cashflow reduction in the end.
