Do any of you risk flipping a house without an inspection?

Thanks for your replies! I forgot to mention... We are looking for properties in both Charleston, SC and Boston. We live in Charleston but Michele's family lives in Boston. Her brother will pay rent and live in one of the units and keep an eye on things. If the deal is good enough, we will consider it!

Hi there! I am looking for a two or three family home in and around the Boston area. Probably want to stay within 20 miles and North of downtown. We are okay with rehabbing the house. Any suggestions on how to find a deal on one or what areas might be good to check out? Thanks!

Oh, an I forgot to mention that I have done 2 flips and owned 2 rental properties in he past ... But that was before the CRASSSHHHH when banks were handing out money like candy.

Hellooooo, my name is Melissa. I moved to the Charleston area three years ago and I rent a home near Old Village in Mount Pleasant.

I'm looking to get connected and figure out how to do my first investment here. Trying to decide if I should do a flip first, or a live in investment that I can rent out in a year. I'm open to living in Mt.P, West Ashley and North Charleston.

I am having some issues with conventional financing because of my 1099 job, though. :( But I have cash for a down payment and the time to search out deals and do a flip. 

Any advice would be so greatly appreciated!
