When you're looking at properties that only need cosmetic updates (like paint and flooring), do you typically offer close to market value?

It’s important to understand that all properties sold at auction are typically offered “As Is” and “Where Is,” meaning the seller does not guarantee or warranty the condition or title of the property in any way.

I am thinking about creating a fund to purchase condos in Florida where we offer 95% off the current value with the goal of acquiring valuable land cheaply to rebuild new.
