Okay, here’s what I have so far.

RE investor called on add. He is selling his last of 50 houses, a 3bed/2bath 1car attached.

Its in a nice location.

He paid 94k (he bought it on a 1031 exchange).

He is asking “in the 80’s”

He wants cash.

I found 4 comps w/in blocks of this house:
-115k 3/2 1car attached
-95k 2/2 1car attached
-110k 3/2 1 car attached
-110k 3/2 1 car port

The house is currently rented at 775/mo (at market)

Owner pays water/sewer/trash, tenant pays rest of util.

Taxes approx 600.

I would like to sell on a l/o.

All suggestions are greatly appreciated!

I’d probably try for it. The rent is a little low, but the taxes are great.

After liquidating 50 properties he may be looking for completion, more so than money. Offer $60K and a quick close to see where his head is at.

If the comps hold up, an 80% LTV would cover your costs.
