It needs work as far as updates to cabinets, bathroom fixtures, and some paint, etc.

Meantime I'm curled up with a big cup of coffee and contemplating some mailings.all cash

A split of something always surpasses a whole of nothing or lossThey can show you the ropes while you are getting paid to learnWondering who to ask is as easy as listening and watching who the congregation flocks to "after the meeting"I was a chapter president in San Diego for a year and the best conversations I had were at TGI Fridays after the show...Buy someone a cup of coffee,Could turn into a great team!

I was once at a yard sale and a guy had a fair amount of bathroom fixtures, towel racks, etc.

They call it the Sprint Cup for a reason.

Also as you grow as a landlord you could keep appliances and  lighting fixtures that you get on sale and keep them in your garages until needed.

The city actually requires you to have inspectors come in and approve the property - because it has been vacant for 3 years and now lost it's Certificate of Occupancy - I have an idea of what it is going to take, but from the windows to the walls to the fixtures, switches, plumbing - the works needs to be repaired and I need to do the labor to cut back on labor cost.

Nothing serious, paint, a tiny bit of sheetrock repair and some light fixture updates on the older one.Anyone have a feel for how much off their asking price they'll entertain withouth laughing at my offer?

The property will appraise for $417,000 or more (recent comps show the same floor plan listed as high as $450,000).This property was constructed around 1979-80, and has nearly all original fixtures.

New toilet, vanity sinks, fixtures, lights, switches, etc.....
