On Friday afternoon and over the weekend I did all my due diligence (visible condition, title letter, city violations, outstanding utilities) and everything is pretty clean.

We have stared the project about a month ago, completely new interior including adding new HVAC all new electrical, flooring, cabinets, tops and so on along with new driveway exterior paint and some siding.ere are some progress pictures.News, we are closing on a house and have a duplex under con .

A lot of times there are some title issues with these types of properties that you'll have to clean up, but they are generally fairly easy to resolve.

We have stared the project about a month ago, completely new interior including adding new HVAC all new electrical, flooring, cabinets, tops and so on along with new driveway exterior paint and some siding.My contractor is also an investor, so we were lucky there, good insight to share and also, he has lots of leads for renters.But he is NOT a good photographer LOL. here are some progress pictures .Also, I will like to share that we are closing on one more single-family property early next week and we have a duplex under contract.

You know at one point in time, zion wasn't too bad at all but 2008 tore that place up and the illinois cleaned up by throwing 5-600 a month tax bills.

I am an investor myself and have purchased rentals that are all clean BRRRRs and 1% deals - positive cashflow, 1% rule, and tons of appreciation.
