I've been using Frank Maxfield for several years now.I've seen him bring rental carpet back from the dead and make my personal home carpet sparkle.He uses a semi-dry approach with a buffer.  

Freshly remodeled, new HVAC, new flooring, semi new water heaters etc.1 of the 4 units is still gutted.  

Call the Town, ask them who supplies water to that town (could be the city or could be a semi-private company. 

I started off doing real estate using a semi bastardized version of Dave Ramsey.

We order lumber straight from the mill by the semi load (saves a lot of money) so we are cutting the middle man out of a lot of things.

I am semi-retired and before the 1980's bubble burst I should all that I had in time and have not resumed any transactions since than.

IE TV  BP  Internet , massive e mail campaigns ,, webinars etc.REALITY its anything from passive unless you are already pretty financially set and are a TRUE investor IE buying SEMI passive investments..

Now the problem I am facing here is that it's classified as a 3/2 this area is about 1,595 sqft and here is where it gets interesting there is also additional 1,618 sqft of space that includes an additional kitchen and 2BR and 1BA with it's own separate entrance, the county website includes the additional space as a semi finished space but not the bedrooms and bathroom so it's basically seen as a large space The only similar comps are a 3/2 @ 1,530 sqft which sold for $305,000 on an acre lot and a 5BR/4BA with a pool @ 3,170 sqft which sold for $490,000 where I am getting confused is should I assume the property as 3/2 since the county only sees it as a 3/2 or a 5BR/3BA because thats what's there.I do have a few days to decide but I am looking to either bring in a partner or a hard money lender on this deal so if anyone has any knowledge on how to attack this one I would greatly appreciate it 

I've noticed a lot of semi detached properties have been flipped in good areas in the city but I'm more of a detached guy. 

Sale price for new semi-attached 2 family $620,000-$640,000  working on creating budget..
