Nothing really to add other than I pretty much agree with what you are saying :) If you want to leave a legacy, leave it for society or the earth.

The next day I went to the building to get to work and found a man removing every single appliance from the building, I was like what on earth and the man said these appliances are mine, the seller didn't pay me for a bunch of work I did, so I went back to the seller and got him to pay me $10,000 for the appliances (they were basically trash anyway) so it ended up being the seller paid me $10,000 to buy his building.

So put all this fake news, education, and experience behind you and just learn how to be down to earth with these people here that is all I am asking.

the Google earth capture below illustrates this perfectly.

You have $70K equity in current property, and are going to get a Hard Money Loan, the most expensive funding on earth, to purchase a tri-plex.

Why on earth would you think we'd call you an idiot for wanting to buy a house at 18?

I've also found few closer to center of town with 2-3 being near power (hard to identify with Google Earth) and there are other developments nearby and another 2 on the other side of town - one with electricity right at the lot level on the road (but it seems that lot has a lot of junk on the property from previous owner) and another lot on the same road has power 2 lots away and the lot is clear. 

Or maybe google earth.

., Redfin for comps, and google earth for location with a little bit of Zillow thrown in.

For flips - here are some criteria borrowed from the dummies book for flipping: Steady or rising real estate values, Multiple offers on recently sold homes and homes currently for sale, An influx of homeowners moving in from other areas, A decrease in the number of homes for rent, An increase in the number of homeowners in the neighborhood moving into bigger homes rather than moving out, Older homes — homes built at least 20 years ago — and homes that generally require more rehab, Areas with aging homeowners — homeowners who may be downsizing or retiring, Visible updating in older neighborhoods — new roofs, aluminum replaced with vinyl siding, replacement windows, modern earth tone trim paint, City improvements including street repaving, new street lights and street signs, and repaved sidewalks.
