But I've got a promotion and am in a better spot now and recently found out this was going to foreclosure and wanted to know if there was any way I could pursue it.....

(competitors)If the solds all had new kitchens and countertops then don't be cheap.It really depends on the sophistication of the buyers.If they don't like your rehab and have to redo it to their standards it will be reflected in their offer price.I would tell you I would never pay top dollar for a kitchen that had resurface and paint and knobs and can spot it a mile away.It says to "rehabber ran out of money and started half-as#ing to finish the job".Then I tell myself where else did they cut corners??

Most of the time you should be able to spot at least one split in the copper.

The very best way is to obtain a "spot elevation" from a surveyor on the subject property, guessing at about $200.

Then you get to pay the fine because some tenant parked in the yard and you can expalin to your tenant who was late getting home for a spot that he should have parked in the street!

If you've got a site/link/product to promote, go for it -- just do it in the designated spot.

The only problem spot we ran into was the ceilings.

Everyone should be able to make some minimum profit by investing some time and sweat, but what's going to set you apart in the future is whether you have the right abilities and talent to spot a property, evaluate it properly, make the right decisions rehabbing it, and have the appropriate expectations selling it.

You're in a tough spot and you also have some tough issues.

It was funny, because the deal was negotiated on the spot and price agreed upon without any counters.........guess I should of went lower : ) He said shoot me an offer, 20k purchase and 35k sale and I was off and running!
