I'll have an engineer look it over and stamp off before I move ahead.

What is the true marketing channel Whether it’s direct mail, cold calling, networking, or something else, I’d love to hear what’s been working in your market and how you’re staying ahead of the competition.

As we’re beginning to get a grasp on the scale of the challenges ahead we wanted to highlight a few areas of note and concern that is already influencing the local and national real estate market.

That may not apply to you, as a financial professional, but I thought I would share the story.Obiously you could re-lever your portfolio to bring the ROE back up, but then you have to place those borrowed funds somewhere that nets a high enough return that the portfolio is ahead, given the drag of the interest and any transaction fees.    

Condition we want is move-in ready, and ideally no more than 10yrs but go ahead and put that fence at 15. 

Visit with people there and you'll get a more detailed look at things from people actively working in the areas.

(Unfortunately, the investor fell for this gimmick and did NOT get their own 3rd party inspections, appraisals or even visit the properties they were buying, against our best efforts to encourage proper due diligence and follow our check list for their own protection.)So now some people are stuck with properties worth half what they paid (not all RWN members), with no renovation done, and constant repairs and vacancies. 

You risk going over and then you are no further ahead if you sell.If you do renos and rent it for $300-400 a month more, it will take you more than 5 years to get the reno money back.

It sounds like you're doing great research ahead of your first flip.

Think of vehicles like the cyber truck where you need to sign up ahead of time to pre-order and so many people want it that the value increases shortly after they are released.
