Those who had luck getting work paid most of it to the company because of fees and others say it’s a scam. 

Taxes/Insurance- depends a lot on where you are located.The homes themselves- POH or TOH? 

Quote from @Mary Jo Carruthers: Fees for buyers side has never been set in stone.

There's also plenty of lenders who falsely represent the true capital requirements to originate their loans or are merely up front fee collectors. 

I do intend to stay close to home - but home provides only annual opportunities and I’m looking for year round possibilities with tax deed properties. 

Remember, they can always refer themselves😊Now, make it a goal to call at least 5-10 of these people EVERY day and ask a MAX OF THREE off the list below of who they know that:Just inherited a homeHad a loved one pass awayIs behind on their mortgage or tax paymentsHas a relative that can’t take care of their house anymoreHas a house they’re having trouble sellingIs facing bankruptcyKnows a probate attorneyKnows a bankruptcy attorneyetcWhy only three off the list per contact?

So permits are not relevant to the subject of this thread for my jurisdictionNot sure if there are jurisdictions that require permits for cabinets or counters but if there is, I suspect the motivation is the fees collected for the permits.So permits SHOULD be irrelevant on this thread.best wishes

It is your first year when you get the major tax savings windfall due to cost segregation and bonus depreciation.

that is more a RV park. the MBH parks down here. we typically own the land, lot, and trailers. there is a reason but long story short, if i just own the lot and they dont pay the fee. i do not have the biggest teeth to push the need for my money. but if i own it all, my experience says it is a better path

I used to live in the city and the taxes and water bills are nightmares.
