Absolutely heart wrenching.

Thanks Kenneth for your very helpful advice and I'll be sure to take it very much to heart...Jeff appreciate your suggestion about northwestreia.com and I'll plan on being at their next meeting which I believe is this coming Thursday!

I have this nagging feeling that I am being too optimistic on my numbers.2 family unit, first floor is 1 bedroom 1 bath, has access to basement. 2nd floor is 2 bedroom [1 bedroom plus renovated attic], with small balcony in the back.The whole house is ready to move in, the current owner did a great job, recently she lost her husband and lost heart in owning this house.Asking price is $65,000.This is a small town in PA, population had been stagnant in the last 10 years, only 2% growth.

@Leon Yang  This is a home that sits directly across the street from me that has been empty for about three years...owner had a heart attack while mowing the grass and moved into a condo...I think the income on a monthly basis is key...and if I were him, I would want a balloon at some point in the next 10-15yrs...any suggestions?

I figured it was time for me to introduce myself to the BP community. So here I am. Background:I am currently 30 - living in a cold, non business friendly state. I am spending my time and energy operating three separa...

This is truly not work for the faint of heart. 

Everyone we talk to really appreciates it and takes our advice to heart.

I started in my 20's and made some irrational decisions, that had cost me financial and mental heart ache. 

The assurance is given that X number of people die from the flu or heart disease every year, that's true, but EBOLA IS 99.9% LETHAL, they aren't! 

One broke my heart as it was beautiful, the renovation almost 100%, but somehow was bank owned.
