If you haven't already, I stronly encourage that you look into the local regulations.

4) Seek to help them solve their problem5) ask them what they need $ to get out of the house, and evaluate if you think that's possibleI'm learning to ask a tremendous amount of questions and am finding that I can keep the conversations going far longer than me offering my "insight", I'd encourage you to door knock these people and have a question based conversation so you can learn as much as you can about the property and make your decision on your course of action after that!  

Thanks Mark, I appreciate the words of encouragement.

Thanks Dylan I appreciate the words of encouragement!

Thanks everyone for your congratulations, encouragement and advice.  

Flipping and buy and hold are two different strategies - and I'd highly encourage you to pick on and really dig in.
