Any deals you ever glad fell through and you didnt purchase it?
Topic.
I remember a deal my dad tried to make where a 4 plex was for sale in central florida for $110,000, and it needed maybe $20,000 in repairs tops. The catch was that there was no hookup for the washer/drier units. Each unit was a 2/1.
Long story short, a much better deal showed up, and someone else offered $115,000 so he had to walk away from that deal. Looking back, we were glad that it happened. The deal from beginning to end felt a little like straw-grabbing for a new deal.
