We are a massive appreciation market. 

Mine have appreciated off of the charts in the Charlotte metro market.

@Ella Marie, I can't speak on behalf of your market, but in my respective market, competition is tough, and the successful fix-and-flip vendors are often full-time operating businesses.

- Will they search for off-market properties for you?

I’m looking to invest out of my home state, Texas, and have narrowed it down to 3 markets.

I am talking to someone on their commercial side, however the last communication I had with them when I asked where we were on attaining a quote was that the under writer was having trouble finding a market for the mobile homes due to the age.

Purchase price: $417,500 Cash invested: $37,575 We weren't super happy with anything we were seeing on the market, so my husband and I had just started writing letters and looking off-market... until we saw this property.It'd been sitting on the market for months, originally listed around $550,000.

I'm also concerned about the real estate market as a whole.

Look at their marketing strategy.
