If you can prove the flipper covered up issues they need to make them right.

So I am back studying and investing into real estate in the Northern Cali area (or anywhere I can find a deal really).

I think that is good enough to get Phase 1 study, verify financials, infrastructure inspections etc. -- I have done $10k to $50k EMD-- Check with your title company, varies from state to state 

He and I connected here on BP late last year, and we're both now richer for it with some valuable new experience to boot.I was initially skeptical of doing a deal all the way in New York especially with someone I hadn't met in person, but Mike proved to be an absolute pleasure to work with.We were looking at one deal with the VA as a seller, but like any government enterprise they proved difficult to work with.

Hi BP community,I am new to BiggerPockets and thought it'd be good time to introduce myself, cause I will be here for awhile;) My name is Jarett Tigges, I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico and currently attend the university here studying Mechanical Engineering (I graduate in May).

Study something that is going to add value to your vision, but one does not compensate for the lack of the other. 

I have not invested in Houston and still trying to find my place in this city so at 1st was going to settle for being a wholesaler but then got encouraged to network, study, research, ask questions and try out other areas of investing.

I failed the National Exam the first time, Study some more failed the National and passed the state the 2nd time around.I took a break, “Shouldn’t did that” I was working retail part time ( but full time hours).

Can they prove how long it takes to rent a vacant property?

Study the mls listings on Zillow with your obsession.
