It's a competitive market and most of the people that get in trouble here are ones that buy blindly without actually figuring out the numbers, etc.You'd be surprised the number of times I get asked after month one if their electric bill of $xxx or whatever is normal, and the thought running through my head is "how did you not  check things like that before you committed half a million dollars to something?"

@James JeffersonHi James,To buy out the property you need to probably apply for a loan through any lender.

I almost exclusively work with investors and business owners in buying and selling in Baldwin County.
