Short sales take a long time and the bank will most likely not respond to a 70% offer. Try to see if the lender has an approved price in place or if the current list price of 78k is simply a number the realtor put on the home to try and generate interest

Good to have you back in the game

I agree - seems like a gamble definitely not worth taking my friend

Good luck - I run into this all the time when flipping under 90 days. Even though technically FHA has lifted this ban, lenders still hate to large increases in prices. I am open to suggestions as well!

Keep it simple - I love it

I agree with Jeff S. in the fact that Portland isn't the best cash flow market (like the Midwest can be from what I'm told) - but I've had luck flipping for years here.

I have only staged one or two homes the past 15 years. I am not sure whether it helped or not. It definitely didn't help the home sell for such a great price or sell quickly that I believe I will always stage. But I may try it again in the future....

Yikes! I hope everything works out for you Jean.

Sounds interesting. I will have to check it out!
