Burnt Out! Literally
Hello fellow BP folks.
Ok so I'm a newbie and I just had the pleasure of viewing a piece of property that has been badly burned out. I've been to a few seminars where they say that these types of properties are a steal but I'm filled with uncertainty.
I've done the calc and there's potential profit but it's a total gut job, from roof to walls, framing, electrical, the works
I've talked to the owner and told him that I would reach back out to him within a week to give him a ye or nay.
Any advice would be most appreciated!
THIA

What is your goal? Rehab , wholesale?
What's your skill/experience level?
If you are new, I would not do a burn rehab as a first one.
