If you are a little handy yourself, be a weekend warrior and fix the small stuff yourself.Give yourself no more than 1 month to get the work done.

But if you go in knowing what the property is worth and it isn't too far away from the seller's asking price, there shouldn't be much to negotiate.Good luck warrior!

Good luck warrior!

(In my Ultimate Warrior voice)Hahahaha.

The IRS is catching up. Quote from the official announcement below: "Virtual currency is an ongoing focus area for IRS Criminal Investigation."https://www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs-has-begun-sending-letters-to-virtual-curr...

You'll do the right thing, that's why you're asking the question...you care.Which means you're a decent person.You can pay a fair price and still make money.Good luck warrior!

I only know what you confess about being a confrontational person and having an ex-con/bully neighbor and  I relate with that.It's a tough situation, no doubt...but, please don't dismiss the other responses because of their judgement or wording, they mostly make total sense and are offering you the path of least resistance and highest probability of safety and success in the long term.I'm not saying give up your warrior spirit, just reminding you that in war, warriors die and more often, innocent civilians(like your family).

Just don't let it sabotage your opportunities.Good luck warrior!

I appreciate it when you call out the sellers, the gurus and the weekend warriors who are advising us.
