Temple university is an interesting market and right now is facing lots of surplus of inventory and falling prices both in rent and sales price.

Those that teach, can't do".BRRRR out of state is very risky business IMO.If you have a $150,000 liquid you could pick up a nice flip in Texas.Haven't been here long but have been long enough in the RE market to see how booming things are here and the deals to be had especially from flip standpoint.I'd stay local, buy, fix and flip and only buy, fix and hold when you cash surplus allows you to do so.Just my opinion and wishing you all the best

I also think there's some value in going after property owners with surplus land (~2,000-3,000 sf) that would be willing to subdivide, IF you could get the city to approve a sub-standard lot size.  

When a pre-construction deal is exceptionally good, I might buy more condos than we need knowing that we can resell the surplus shortly before delivery.

Because of the condition, you may have to go to the Excess / Surplus Lines market (ie.

There are standard carriers and Excess/Surplus markets for that coverage. 

Excess business losses are capped for single individuals at $250,000 and for married individuals at $500,000, with any surplus being suspended and carried forward.

The industry is in desperate need for change but that would require the removal of Realtors who are surplus to the market requirement which would mean less membership at the NAR, which means less revenue and less political power.

A lot of office buildings sitting at 30%+ vacancy will be "for sale" soon enough, and self-storage strikes me as among the easiest and most plausible conversion of all that surplus space for sale on the cheap.

If judge denys, my question is if the previous owner does not claim the surplus money can it go to the 1st morgage so that when I do try and negotiate it will already include the winning bid amount?
