I know oakland is changing, but some areas more than others, sometimes block by block.

I had a 5 day minimum and being 2 blocks away from the Moscone center, my rental was rented on a weekly basis.  

One great way to find investors in the area is look for absentee owners in the neighborhood/couple blocks surrounding your fourplex and send them the deal through DM even if you have to!

It's because they have been around the block many times.

It’s recommended you get there early for the DTLA courthouse because there’s a line around the block by the time the doors open.

. - I decided I didn't want to mess with it because Im starting another project with higher potential return.Now, as an example, I look at this one:https://www.zillow.com/homes/63-GRANVUE-DRIVE-BELL...Its on the Auction block, if I picked it up for 2 or 3k, and sold it for 10k to someone else who wants to work with it, essentially a wholesale deal, and didn't spend any money fixing it up, and agreed to max 1k realtor fees if any, I might make some money on it.If you go to our county tax assessor site, and search '63 Granvue', youll see that 1) the total taxes for 2018 are $2981.38, and 2) they are paid by the bank already for 2018 http://www.co.st-clair.il.us/Pages/parcel.aspxWhat I am asking is - if I bought this at auction, and sold it within a couple of months as a property someone else can rehab, how would the property taxes work / what would I end up paying? 

The time and effort, road blocks and struggles associated with starting with nothing are seldom worth your efforts. 95% of those starting out will fail.

-BRICK BRICK BRICK only-Warranty Deed (never QCD)-make sure the block is decent (minimum vacants, owners vs rentals, pride of ownership)-check back water and delinquents taxes (https://pta.waynecounty.com/Home/PropertySearch, http://www.detroitmi.gov/dwsd)

If I’m computing my comps number and cannot find houses that’s in the subject property couple block radius; can I then uses other properties thats futther out?

I've found another property that I feel confident will bring me a similar return as the first (same city, about 3 blocks away, similar price, similar SF, same Bedroom, more baths), but I'm not sure I should buy 3 properties within 1.1 years as it will make me leveraged to the tune of about $550,000.
