It would be totally awesome if I can somehow luck out and foreclose on them but chances of that are slim. 

We ended up changing directions because I was working every weekend and profit margins are always slim working with investors as a contractor.

The big flip operations are buying at slim margins, and savvy homeowners are buying foreclosed properties because they can't find what they like on the MLS.    

I felt completely abandoned and powerless against a mighty problem.I then started calling agents at random hoping to get someone to help me rehab a 150K house for a slim profile margin after all the work required to manage a construction project.

Being from California though, I feel you on duplex being slim to none.

Still learning to find the off market deals or leads (any advice welcome) have mostly used foreclosure auctions and those are slim pickings right now. 

However, we currently only have the ability to search in the market for an investment property worth around 100-150k if we only have the option of putting 20% down which is extremely slim pickins in Atlanta to get in a decent up and coming spot.

First-time poster here, very new member of BP.I'm a renter who is not looking to buy my own place -- unless I can house hack w/in a couple miles of downtown.Because I believe the chances of finding my ideal house hack to be pretty slim, I'm thinking about buying a SFH or MFH somewhere within a one-hour driving distance from Pittsburgh.

Unfortunately, not too many people know about this program so my options in the San Diego are somewhat slim and in fields I am not particularly interested in.I would prefer to be in the renovation side of things.

If it's been on the MLS for 3 months at $225,000 and no bites, there is some (albeit slim as paper) chance.
