It would be a lot more possible if you find a fixer upper, but the catch 22 is that FHA requires it to be fairly habitable to be approved.

I agree it's the holy grail to get in on a gentrifying area before the trend catches on and ride out the increased rents without technically doing any value-add.

Usually if they’re broke and living paycheck to paycheck, they don’t catch up.

Also didn't catch what the ARV would be after all is said and done.

Thanks, the catch is I did most of the work myself, subbed out a few projects like full bathroom re-do :/It was a huge learning experience, but now I feel more confident in both understanding the scope of various projects, and working with contractors for the future.

For a bird I would tell them to open windows and leave it alone for a while if they weren't comfortable catching it but I wouldn't be making the trip over or paying for anyone to help them get it out.

Please kindly direct message me to let me know if you have time to briefly catch up.Cities:Washington DCAtlantaBostonPhiledaphiaChicagoThank you very much!

Then your cash flow catches back up.  

The seller is behind on payments and we're planning to catch it up to date, and give the Seller some cash at closing for this equity. 

What can be done to really catch attention and convince someone to develop this property?
