If you find a deal you can always make an offer contingent on selling your existing properties.

Currently a majority of the existing mixed use buildings have the commercial space shuttered with the owners just biding their time until the real estate prices make sense for them to rent out or sell - or they are just asking way too much in rents for any businesses to survive for very long.

I understand home designs are pretty expensive, and cannot just be applied to any lot/existing neighborhood.

Recognizing its strategic location behind two of my existing investment properties, I approached the owner directly.

Hopefully a) they meet/exceed my expectations over time and b) more auditable info/data comes into existence based on the experience of Flock shareholders, in contrast to the rather limited info/data that exists today. 

those peaceful protesters are really something.

I also have lost out on a house because I was some dollars short of the 10%.I know the area and property quite well, and familiar with the foreclosure case for the particular property in question.The reason I ask is, because I am not physically in the area and wanted to see if any service exists, where they can bid on your behalf, when you tell them your maximum, and perhaps hook up with a HML, where the 10% down payment in certified funds is not a hinderance.

You are trying to sell him a pipedream (and, as usual, your SEO services) on wholesaling, which does not exist in NYC and the boroughs.Why don't you try to do it in NYC and see how it goes?

Zombie foreclosures came into existence because at the bottom of the downturn banks/lien holders faced a problem that they had never encountered before.

They also gave me a subject to option for all of them, where they take over the existing mortgages and provide cash upfront.
