The miasma of your smoking (even outdoors) lingers indoors and sets in for people whose sense of smell isn't trained to ignore the stench.

In one case, he actually was instruction the incompetent attorney for the former owner on how to present his case in the best light for the judge. 

(sport court, lake, indoor golf and some amazing pools).

Or maybe even just focus on properties with a very light rehab?

In light of the recent lawsuit against the National Association of Realtors (NAR), There has been significant discussion regarding real estate commissions following this settlement.

Glad to see someone bringing this to light here.

If you truly have the best house after your rehab in that range, type, style, amenities, etc. then by all means see what you can get, work with the appraiser and see if he has room for adjustments that he feels are justified, just don't ***** about it if it;s lower and he doesn't see things in the same light as you do.

Steps I was thinking of following:1) Get electrical up to code since its all 2 prong outlets and the panel is way outdated.2) painting of the whole house3) Demo kitchen and bathroom4) Renovate kitchen/bathroom5) install new floors6) input new appliances7) input new light fixtures8) etc.

Other considerations things to look at include; are any utilities common (like paying for a boiler for all 4 units instead of individual furnaces), how does access/common areas work, do the tenants all have access to laundry, are there any common area utilities (light common area lights, electric or gas for laundry) that would stay in the owner name.  

Purchase price: $135,000 Cash invested: $15,000 Found a great starter home for sale that needed light cosmetic work.
