That said, I don't want to take my foot off the gas with investing either. 

The insurance company denied the claim citing negligence - ie. temp of the house inside and outside was the same, no form of general maintenance was done to secure the home for winter.Now we have a bill of close to $100k and they are refusing to foot the bill.

I am sure there will be mistakes and things I could have done better but I excited to get my foot in the door. 

We charge per square foot honestly.

If there's a prospect house in a good locations that's sitting on 5k square foot lot, 1500 sq ft, and is priced at $340k.

I am not a resident of KCMO (and actually never stepped a foot there).

With the way prices and interest rates are going in our area it feels like a never ending game of catch up sometimes so this will really help us get our foot in the door.

This deal was presented to me as a potential partnership deal to get my foot in the door and learn a bit about real estate investing.

I know there has been some recent lower end apartment complexes in the area that have been bought and refaced which has helped change the look of the area but there is many duplex style homes scattered on Century 21st Dr along with Ivey Rd that increase foot traffic in the area.

If anyone is interested, I will happily work my butt off for you, sourcing deals and anything that I can possibly do to get my foot into this door.
