So think twice before taking any outsized risks, as you already achieved a nice equity base, and you don’t want to end up screwing the pooch by taking unneeded risks ;)Good luck and keep us posted on your decisions…

Hi Bobby, I'm the ops manager for the Property Management Division at Milestone Premier Properties and a licensed realtor and investor.I actually live in Denton too butour brokerage is based in downtown Denison where I commute 2x a week.

Based on what I am seeing Ft Myers and Lehigh and not doing well.Cashflow has always been tough in most areas of FL, SWFL is no exception.

@Zach Howard there is no agreed upon Classification in the 1-4 unit market.We've done our best to logically create a system for our market, mostly based upon relative sale prices, but also using crime rates, rents, occupant income and a few other variables. 

It would be based on the scope of work of the renovation that you're doing comparing for values in its as is condition and values after rehab 

Happy to connect as well as I'm based in Chicago.

I titled this post based on that.

Social Security also has a consent based ssn verification process where a SSN can be verified with the parties consent.Again, we can never be 100% full proof but we can stay on top of the latest ways to mitigate the fraudsters at their game.How are you catching fakes?

while i do think it's valuable to analyze properties, it's really difficult to underwrite based on photos. 

There’s also a scorecard that gets released based upon many factors.
