Need Advice! Found House in Watts area of Los Angeles
Hi All. I am brand new here. I have located a house in the Watts area of Los Angeles. It's boarded up and tax delinquent and the owner is unresponsive to the city. I would never consider owning a rental in this neighborhood but before trying to find the owner what are your thoughts on flipping a property like this?
Assuming there is no hazardous waste etc, after an inspection, is it feasible to do a wholesale flip in this area or is it just too bad to even consider? If feasible, how can I find recent cash buyers in this area to flip to if I am able to put it under contract? Thank you
