Third Time the Charm??

Posted

I have looked at two properties so far. First one was in a somewhat up and coming urban neighborhood in Fort Worth and the second was in an established neighborhood near where I live. They both got taken and I'm not so bummed about the first since the location was sketchy despite the neighborhood being or soon-to-be trendy. The second one was not bad but not as much of profit margin as the first. But this evening I will be viewing my third property located in what we call the mid-cities area here in the Dallas/FW area. Similar to the second property and by the looks of things someone has already started some demo work (flooring in kitchen, den and dining have been removed).

My question is do I take the virgin property plunge or hesitate and lose out again? A part of my brain tells me I should take the leap and if the numbers work -fabulous. If not, well fabulous learning experience. The profit margin is small but I feel I need to take the plunge.

HELP!!!
