If the inexperienced investor knew how much work, effort, time, analysis, negotiation, organization, capital, and knowledge it takes to successfully find, identify, evaluate, and close on a property that fits the criteria that gurus falsely claim they see 100’s of every day, 99% of them would abandon their real estate dreams” and pursue ostrich farms, mink breeding, or setting up a “down line” to sell condensed cleaning products that their “upline” has an exclusive distributorship on for the southwestern quadrant of Bisbee, Arizona.  

I made myself take QB classes and struggled for years, my CPA said what I am doing is about 80% correct and it was a ton of work to clean up the files. 80% is not acceptable for me when it comes to IRS stuff.

Which leads to another question, what is your specific ability to finance a solution? 

You own it until you sell it.To make the most money as a wholetail you want to fix unattractive things (at low cost) and clean and spruce up the appearance as a whole.

It was an ideal solution to support the long-term vision for transforming this parcel into a thriving residential community.

Hey BP fam, 
I have a property that desperately needs a way out,
The property has been on the market for a little bit, sellers just recently bought the property so they don’t have much equity. immediately I thought,...

here is the situation. i left a really good paying job to take care of my 81 year old parents because my dad is chronically ill and my mom is almost there. i wont go into too much detail, but my sis doesnt help them. ill leave it at that. we have a person who comes twice a week to help with cleaning and other household tasks. i carry the bulk of the weight cooking their meals, running errands, grocery shopping, picking up meds, and taking them to dr appointments. its a full time job. i get a small salary of $1000 a month from a care giver sub contractor for the VA. ive been paying my bills with what savings ive had, but only have a few months of funds left. i own a duplex. i have over 200k in equity. i live in texas and texas has weird laws about refi and heloc/heloans when the property is 4 units or less and owner occupied. i would rather not sell, but if thats my only option i will have to at some point.does anyone have any advice or possibly be able to point me to lenders who might be able to work with my situation?

Has anyone had a different experience with HOAs or has any solution to getting around this?

I allow pets with a pet fee and have a cleaning fee, tenants change out every 3-6 months on my MTR usually.
