In Tampa, you'll get a hell hole in a war zone at $1000. 

Unfortunately its suppose to go to the courthouse steps in a couple of weeks and I'm sure there will be a bidding war at that point. 

Never heard of it. 

I had none of these issues &  still sat on market a bit.

We allow families we KNOW to stay in it. it sleeps 7-8 people.Also, I have a lot of friends that also have campers. and they allow me to use it from time to time to help the families.I also cleared a designated 1 acre area for tent camping.

You could also go onto Facebook Groups and see what kind of activity there is.Chances are there is some demand.

Keep emotions out of it.

No thanks.I discovered somewhat of what Emilie relays.

Full-Appraisal Loan (75% LTV) – When Leverage WinsExample:You’re buying a stabilized rental with plenty of time before closing—no bidding war, no motivated seller.Purchase Price: $200KLoan at 75% LTV = $150K (you bring $50K cash)Appraisal risk is low because comps are solid, and you want to keep more cash for the next deal.This works best when:You want to maximize leverage and recycle cash quickly.Timing isn’t as critical as long-term financing terms.My Opinion:Speed wins when the deal is time-sensitive or ultra-competitive.Leverage wins when the market is stable, the appraisal risk is low, and you want to stretch your capital further.
