I have no idea what it should look like, but am told it needs to encompass my personal real estate history, history of the property, and market evaluation.

Hi everyone,I am in the process of evaluating some properties to do a flip on and am putting together a timeline to complete renovations by.

The agent.A short sale is pretty much this in a nutshell1) Buyer is in trouble and sends hardship to bank2) Agent does analysis and comes up with price (Which is of course lower than what is owed to bank)3) Bank says, go ahead and put it on the market4) Somebody looks at house and puts in offer5) Seller accepts any offer that comes in because they want out (regardless of how much the bank loses)6) Bank takes weeks/months to pay for their own evaluation, look at how long on the market, run an internal appraisal, look and do a cost benefit analysis on the loan and property7) Bank accepts/counters or denys the offer (provided they decide to do anything at all and not just foreclose on the original borrower and take the house themselves)I have it happen monthly....

Talk to your tax planner.The money spend on education has to be carefully evaluated.

So the owner may offer some form of compensation for part of the expense of the repair.You need to evaluate for yourself if this purchase warrants the risk of losing the earnest money if an issue is found during the inspection period.Good luck

@Remy Bonser It's certainly possible, but you need to figure out and understand the different sub markets within Boston you want to tackle and how to evaluate those deals.

Another point  is, evaluate what these investors' main goal is.

I don't really have any questions about rentals but for flips, I'm coming across some problems.I use the 70% rule to evaluate max offer price.

Need some guidance in evaluating a retail space.

I may not disclose every detail right out of the gate until I evaluate the best way to communicate.
