The carpet was cleaned, fresh paint, all the appliances come with it, etc.The house really looks to be move-in ready besides maybe some very minor work that shouldn't cost a lot of cash.

It's all about options.I do wholeheartedly disagree with the concept of equity being an opportunity cost.

From my understanding replacing the insulation in his apartment would cost a lot of money.  

Such as Rehab cost and hold cost.

In some cases it may cost a vendor half as much to work with Roofstock as opposed to other promotional companies.

If you're using a gross income projection, then simply deduct the cleaning cost as an expense, like you said - that would work fine. 

this would cost a tad more than 30k and be about 45 days .. this is one I am going to do in a few years when I can be that long away from my business. 

I may not make a profit on borrowed money, my money invested may subsidize the cost as well, but if that deal is the best use of my money and I'm making a profit off my side the equity, I'm still making more than if I hadn't taken that opportunity.

On the other hand, I'm pretty sure you've heard of Bob Costas, Tina Fey, Ted Sarandos, and Elena Ford.
