I have saved up some money but my goal is to save up at least 20k in a year before I start looking for options on house hacking in a duplex.

.- You mentioned this sale is tax free 121 exclusion, which is great, and seems like a solid start to your goal.- The townhouse you're moving into is currently a rental, but you plan to live there two years for the 121 exclusion.

I have seen people buy non-existant properties, bottom of lake (literally underwater), slivers of land too narrow or small to do anything, Army bombing range, expired leases, cell tower now removed, property with 30 year lease and prepaid rent for 30 years, condemned buildings, toxic waste sites, land under railroad tracks, cliffs, landlocked property, wetlands, flood zone, unbuildable property, endangered species habitat, ....I have three rules for buying at Tax Sale:1.

Hi Everyone,I recently started a Marketing Company that helps VRM get listings.

The only real difference is when you start collecting rent after purchase.How have you weighed this against the probability of tenant nonperformance?

Food for thought for me and you : If you where to start all the way from zero in wholesaling, how would you rebuild going back up?

Looking to get started.

You'll notice in new construction areas they tend to build the homes on a pyramid. 

Start by giving them notice of what they are violating and then if it isn't remedied, start the eviction process. 

We also have some buildings that are single family conversions not built with seperate utilities.
