I bought it for $925,000 and sold it to a developer who knocked down the building and build an apartment complex.  

With a family and limited capital, keep it simple and repeatable: target a modest buy‑and‑hold in a cash‑flowing market and pair it with private money or a small partnership to cover the down and rehab while you learn to underwrite tight.

While you’re stacking base hits, shadow experienced sponsors on two to three Jacksonville and PA multifamily deals—offer sweat equity on underwriting, broker calls, and investor updates to earn a modest GP sliver.

i just finished a very modest BRRRR here in Pittsburgh. 

Personally - As a small time landlord with a very modest income (65-70k/year from all sources) the expenses in this situation scare me a bit.

Three workable paths: 1) Tenant hauls to the dump with a required cadence, photo proof, and a fee if trash accumulates. 2) Landlord provides monthly curbside service to a can at the road, plus a small shed or bear‑box halfway down for staging; add a modest rent bump to cover it. 3) Hybrid: landlord schedules a twice‑monthly haul by a local hauler; tenant brings bags to a designated bin area near the house.

Currently pulling lists from PropStream and door-knocking for pre-foreclosure/high-equity deals, but I'm looking to scale with inbound leads to save time.Came across Real Estate Bees for their pay-per-lead model—motivated seller leads, geo-targeted to the Triad, supposedly high-intent from SEO/PPC ads (not cold lists).

Assuming the occupied unit recently qualified the yearly section inspections, and if the tenant elects to stay on (lease ends May 2026), I would have them stay as long as they desire and explore if there is any room to negotiate modest/fair increase in the rent.

Im not afraid to cold call, knock on doors, whatever it takes I just don't know whats the best use of my time. 

We expect some modest capex to freshen it up in year 1.
