The way we do it in the UK is low ball on offers, and then I realised in the US there are scenarios when you do this and when you don't.

I'm juggling a few balls and plan on getting with @Steven Hamilton II once I know status of employment.

Finding something while being a part time agent to get the ball rolling is your best bet.

There had once been a leak from a drain stopper ball on the p-trap, they called it an active leak even though it was dry and clean.

As a ball park I am using the following formula to determine the buy price

(That and 25 cents get you a gum ball)· Current property market value is 200,000 +/-· Current mortgage balance (280k, and 30k) 80 / 20· With both units rented I pay 500$ a month +/- out of my pocketQuestions1.

They think we are a bunch of low balling fools that waist everyone's time.I would suggest talking to some local investors and find out who the investor freindly agents are and seek them out instead of going for a particular franchise.

We've got some financial stuff to get in order before getting the ball rolling.

We run comps and then determine if we can make a deal based on our ball park figure.

If I am in Fla where I don't have mls access and I find a house I am interested in, I will open the zillow app, on my pad and drive the street looking at all the yellow (sold) houses, houses move along on the pad as you drive the street, its a fast and rather fun way to get you in the ball park.
