At the root of it, I believe you are undecided on your market because of the lack of knowledge on those markets you're looking at.

Hahahah WTFI love it you filthy animal lol 🤣I know it's illegal but I would tare down $40,000 worth of work for lack of payment.Have seen it done many times lolI started my career as a laborer in Sydney.Swept floors for 4 years and carried sheetrock, studs, etc...High rise office fit-outs.Could never take the elevator with the white collar folks as we "where" filthy animals.Funny thing is, I made more money than most of the suit and tie guys 🖕Construction in Oz is very well paid and not much shady biz in not getting paid.But yes, treated like S#@% over there also.

The lack of garage is a bummer.

We are eager to help relative avoid being scammed as she is elderly and lacking awareness of processes not being a US citizen.

@Carlos PtriawanI did recently see a video with US significantly lacking from other major countries as our office vacancy rates are significantly higher than others, and we are one of the only countries who is not permanently back to the office .Which, of course this not only impacts office, but a significant impact on small businesses, especially retail such as restaurants who support these offices.

I will share my "Most Expensive Lesson" in the comments.To kick things off, here are ten examples of expensive lessons or mistakes in real estate investing:Underestimated Repairs: The classic pitfall where the cost of repairs and renovations far exceeds initial estimates, impacting the overall budget and profitability.Tax Liens: Failing to account for or being unaware of existing tax liens on a property can result in unexpected financial burdens.Contractor Liens: Not settling payments or disputes with contractors can lead to liens against your property, complicating sales or refinancing.HOA Fines: Overlooking or violating Homeowners Association (HOA) rules can lead to significant fines and headaches.Bad Loan Products: Opting for loan products without fully understanding their terms can lead to unfavorable financial conditions, such as higher interest rates or unfavorable repayment terms.Ignoring Zoning Laws: Investing in a property without a clear understanding of local zoning laws may restrict its use, affecting your investment strategy.Overpaying for a Property: Lack of research or getting caught in a bidding war can result in paying much more than the property's worth.Neglecting Due Diligence: Skipping thorough inspections and background checks can uncover unpleasant surprises after the purchase is finalized.Poor Tenant Screening: Failing to properly screen tenants can lead to unpaid rent, property damage, and costly evictions.Underestimating Market Risk: Not considering market fluctuations can lead to investments that don't pay off as expected, especially in volatile or declining markets.We've all been there in one way or another, facing setbacks that seemed daunting at the time.

It is the lack of authority and lack of consistency in the legal analysis that I found troubling.

However I feel that I lack the knowledge to get started, if anyone has done this in my area I would love to hear your opinion if its profitable enough to be worth the time and trouble.

Houses lacking are floundering.2.

I had to lower the price of one side slightly do to lack of interest so that was a bummer.
