Billy I did a hoarder last year that I took 300,000 obs to the dump.. cost me 75k just to remove all the crap.. now that included the houses that was wasted and of no value.. but still.that guy lived there about 10 years so I figure he went out daily and brought back about 100 lbs of junk  LOL  now that included a few cars an RV a boat. you know all those prized possessions and in our area you don't beat back the shrub's etc the whole place was not visible from the street half the stuff was intertwined with vegetation. 

Check to see if their expectant daughters baby father is being released from prison, he will be moving in with them.Honestly C/D is a crap shoot.

I have yet to purchase my first rental, but in my opinion, this is a bunch of crap. 

To this day I feel like crap. 

Looked like parents built it (2012) to get their kids out of the house. for 7 years the place looked like crap.

The license is most useful as an investor for seeing as many on-market crap houses that you can before anyone else sees them.As an investor my whole life, I've worked as an agent for Sotheby's, Keller Williams, Berkshire Hathway, and eXp currently for the second time. eXp is by far and away the easiest to work with as an investor agent.

One thing that struck me as soon as I read your letter, though...and I'm not trying to be a wet blanket so don't take this that way, but my first impression was that you called my mobile home pretty much a lump of crap when you said "I am interested in buying a home like yours in hopes of making it look wonderful once again"!  

When I say quality, a quality person renting a sub quality place isn't happy, if they have a situation like a foreclosure through four years ago and they want to be homeowners again, they should be willing to jump through some hoops as far as rebuilding your credit historyAlso I mean quality is far as the quality of the location and the quality of the house that's for rent, many houses for rent are crap, and the best school districts and safest neighborhoods are only houses for saleCharles I've been doing this for 30 years and with the times that we are in right now with tenants having such a hard time getting a mortgage and getting out of the Rent  Trap, this is not a buy-and-hold strategy Like in stocksI live in a very expensive area Los Angeles and the average person can buy house because they're 900,000 to 1,200,000 where I live and lease purchase has a place here because many people can get mortgagesBut if you lived in Pittsburgh or you live in Cleveland or you lived in Orlando, you can make money with lease-option assignments or sandwich lease options if you've got a little bit of money for reserves as a real estate entrepreneur operatorWhat's in it for the seller is they can lease with an option hopefully with the right screening of tenant buyers that have ties to the community and strong employment where they're  not going to lose their jobsWhat's in it for the investors is that they can do a lease option assignment or sandwich and make some money without getting a bank loanI do like lease purchase over lease option for the seller because it's a stronger commitment and a definite end to the dealFor the buyer I'd much prefer a lease with an option with an extendable option in the initial contractFrom a business point of view if you're interested in getting better appreciation you can just do one year agreement and ratchet up new agreements at 5% a year or a new appraisal every 12 monthsI have put together a lease purchase arrangements where the sales price has been tied to either a new appraisal or a set floor price whichever is higher, to prevent a loss; in stocks this is called " collaring "where you have a  call order at a lower price to prevent a big loss and an order to sell a certain high priceSee protective collar http://www.investopedia.com/articles/optioninvestor/07/protective_collar.asp

Foreign investor who had been paying cash have slowed down quite a bit.. with many buying in your area frankly and other very tough rental markets and being sold crap properties for high prices and getting totally burned.. so they are much more cautious these days. 3. now that investor loans are back on the table investors are returning to pre 08 habits of obtaining debt when they can get it so they can leverage up...

Beyond smell, you're going to have a reasonable amount of heavy trucks bringing chemicals, septic haulers bringing in portable crap loads, solid waste cakes being hauled to the landfill or (worse) slurry land applied.
