Just FYI I'm keeping my powder dry until I'm sure I have everything lined up to buy.

The really good deals seem to have dried up a bit this summer here in Great Falls. 

@Troy S. you do make a very valid point and I do agree that being able to dry by your property is very important.

NC has/had turnkey providers but for the most part everything turnkey there has dried up.

So if deals dry up in one area now you have to buy more in others.

I have clients who bought pre sale, 20% down, but now can't qualify for the mortgage as completion approaches (they came to me after buying and we will make it happen, but they were close to assigning) and with the uncertainty, private investors aren't as willing to lend, even with solid equity in the home, not to mention the private lenders are drying up as they did a lot of lending on the private builds that were booming. 

For the most part, carpet that has been wet for more than 24-48 hours should be removed and replaced, and in all cases the padding and subfloor underneath should be dry.

There is dry rotting around most of the house in the lower panels.

Only thing we're waiting for is permit for dry wall work in the basement.

A garden sprayer and a few minutes to dry.
