I always thought weirdos and cat lady's shop at trader joes.  I was right all along.  I had a hoarder once.   Only once.    Humans are disgusting.    

I use google streetview to cruise the streets I grew up. Absolutely heart wrenching. M

First thing I would do is pull this post offline so an attorney trolling BP looking to sue somebody wouldnt see it. Then I would promptly call an insurance agent and a general contractor thats licensed. Thats just me....

Good initiative Tony. Not many flippers looking for cable installation Im thinking. Learn how to swing a hammer or get into one of the trades (plumbing, electrical, roofing) and you will have flippers jumping at your enthusiasm. My two cents. Good on you sir for stepin out

Attention want to be Detroit real estate investors. This is the reality of the situation. Society is breaking down to urban farming and sharecroping. Families raising guinie pigs in thier basement trading them for home made bread with thier neighbors. Helps supplement food stamps. Almost all of the inner city and and direct suburbs are like this. You have pockets of nice areas made up of hardcorps GM retirees and Veterans. They will die there with fierce pride and dignity. My family included. But they will be gone soon enough and then the zombies will move in. People that actually know how to change a light bulb, paint a fence or run, repair and put gas in a lawn mower have long since left. Only people for sure to make money are the agents selling "turn key" investments to the unsuspecting out of state and international "investors". Mighty industrial empire shattered.

Good luck in Ohio!

California entry point is so high in terms of $$. Lucky (or unlucky) I found a flipper/builder who is selling rehab duplexes. He's making his money off me no doubt, but the properties do cash flow. Thats his magic sauce. Not to get too greedy and prices them to unload . You got to go where no one else will to find anything that's makes a buck.
