I live in Columbus and I stumbled upon a nice house that had an auction sign in the yard for next month.

I am in the process of building a 8700 square foot modular condo in Newburgh and stumbling along  in Port Jervis.

I was extremely fortunate in stumbling into the purchase of a DC rowhouse in a neighborhood that has exploded in popularity and have benefited from the increased property values that come with that popularity, as well as having mostly fantastic tenants.My family and I will be moving to Colorado next, so that will be my next investment location.

I talked to an attorney and considered trying to get out of the deal but my partner convinced me to stick with it trying to convince me we stumbled on a gold mind.We mowed the waist high grass $200, pulled all the trash and carpet out of units $1,250, fixed the broken windows with plexiglass and silicone caulk $750, copied the logo off the Sheriff Office Web site and made some official looking documents that said area was being patrolled by Drug Special Interdiction Unit $.15.

I stumbled across the site and had no a site like this existed.

So I own a few 3 flats one which is mine free and clear of any loans, conservatively it's valued at 335.I stumbled on an owner of a 18 unit that wants to sell.

I'm wondering and this is just a scenario in my head but wanted to see if it make sense, correct me in my terminology, this is what I've gathered of reading and asking people lolLet say "XYZ" person has a house, somehow I stumble upon their listing and realize their about to foreclose for non payments or are a delinquent renter/owner who has not payed their dues over some time, would their be any way I could find out who has the property note to buy at a 'discount' and negotiate terms with them if they really want to stay in the property?

What interests me about real estate is that I feel it would be a good starting point to learn how to be an entrepreneur.I am so glad I stumbled upon BP!

I'm thrilled to have stumbled upon this site whilst doing some research on the real estate industry.  

In my search for knowledge about real estate I stumbled upon biggerpockets.com.
