The market has everything from turn of the century fixer Victorians for $15K to million dollar mansions.

It's a bit of a shame to see the grand mansions deteriorating into the ground, as East Cleveland was once of the wealthiest suburbs in the area and the home of John D.

In my town, Florham Park, NJ, there has been A LOT of tear downs of split level 1,500-2,500 square feet single family homes mostly on 1/2 to 1 acre lots and subsequent re-construction into large mansions.

In California, you can invest by zip code, in Memphis you can find mansions a couple of blocks from boarded up shacks.  

Funny - I'm working 2 seperate markets right now - rental property where the banks got screwed by the subprime default and I'm getting them for pennies.....and beachfront mansions in Belize.

You'd think a 700k home would be a beautiful mansion but it is not.

Think scraping a $700K house and building a 2.5 million mini mansion in it's place and looking for a $300K-$400K profit.

I love to see renovations, especially on homes like these!http://detroit.curbed.com/archives/2014/10/dilpaid...

Try looking for large mansions that have fallen into disrepair or where elderly people are living.

Thats mansion size, isnt it?
