Flipping the House Next Door

One of my next door neighbors passed away a while back. In speaking with another neighbor the other day, I learned that the next of kin were looking to sell the house.

Perfect lead!

My neighbor's concern was that the family would take a low-ball offer just to sell it quick- our modus operandi. The reason it concerned him was that it would affect our own property values.

So I ask you all, would you make a 70% offer on the house next door, despite the hit your own home value could take?
