Always use the lowest or actual rental amount when calculating.
Offer a 3 year triple net lease w/ a purchase option of 75K, $300 option up front and $200. rent credit per month. Lease amount $150 per month less than the current renters. Sounds like he may be having some problems with the tenants

Problem 1: My first problem is trying to get someone to pay 950 per month in a area where rents are about 750 to 900

Problem 2: The current owner is out-of-state and has the house up for sale with renters in it until September. (I see this as an opportunity because he has limited his market to investors that want to take on renters. He hasn’t told me what they are paying, but I think I have to honor their lease. Is that true?

Strategy: Assume the loan (The mother died and owned the house free and clear and deeded it to the daughter for 66000.) Give the owner 7.5K and sell it in a year for 90K However, I am not sure if it went thru probate. How can I make sure it did and the daughter has a clear and free title without doing a title search. By the way, the daughter is out of state and I am dealing with her brother. However, I plan on sending the pre-agreement directly to the sister.

Thanks to anyone who gets the far. I am going in to battle Saturday.

Point of diminishing returns?..~~~~~~??.. I read a whole book on REI when I was very young (and still in the Stock Market) the only (whole?) point of the book was very simple.
Don?t fix up past the average house on the block. This can be expressed as corollaries for renting, additions, rehabbing and purchasing. You are fighting the trend, you are trying to rent for MORE THAN THE AVERAGE rent.
