I have noticed potential agents/tenants tend to avoid going to homes where there is a current tenant.On the other hand, does the increased marketing exposure help get it rented without vacancy?

However there is potential to increase value and make money here.  

It's not worth the potential issues that could happen between you and the current owner, contractors, etc.

Also if you see any other potential options for my situation I would love to know.

Your Uncle offering you a zero interest loan of $800K for a property potentially worth over $1 million.

I have called the state\epa and discussed what is needed for operation of treament plant, confirmed the certification and validated all but rent roll.Barring rents panning out and with the possibility of rehabbing and renting the existing vacant 4 units this appears like it will cash flow well and  have some significant upside with 10 more lots to be filled potentially. 

I'm confident it'd go for $1,650 under most circumstances, but I was not sure how much the school year starting would potentially delay renting it out.Even at $1,600, it'd still be above our initial projections and I'm anxious to get started on the next one once this ones finished up.

I can help you find your next home in Georgia, as well as potential investment properties.

REI has historically been very competitive.Cash is not king in real estate investing...deal flow is (lots of it).If you don't start now, you will have no experience or relationships if a correction occurs.If a correction occurs, lending/capital sources can dry up.Investors over-estimate their ability to pull the trigger when prices are crashing and there is no end in sight.If you can generate even a small positive IRR from real estate during an economic recession, idle cash is the risky choice (and is very costly over long periods).All properties and markets will not loose significant value in the next down cycle (real estate is local and good locations will always perform well).Investors can add as much or more value to a property than the potential loss of value in a downturn.If we have capital that we have to put to work, prudent real estate can be the flight to safety.I don't like investing into a hot market but sitting on the sidelines for years is not a viable strategy...just have to be really careful.If you are a market appreciation only investor, ignore this post...that can require some market timing.Interested in everyone thoughts.
