@Tobi Isaacs this would be better answered by other investors in your market. 

Where would you start with a process like this. 

There is an incredible amount of points to consider when weighing the options on something like this and honestly, I don't recommend it to very many people at all ....even seasoned tradesmen and investors.

only one avenue to this and that is an equity partner that shares your dream. 

This will give you an idea of the Class of neighborhood.

Hey Sarah, if the seller has an agent, it’s best to go through them first since they’ll likely get involved anyway.For a property that’s been sitting on the market, approach with strategy.

I have seen a number of cases locally where a party clearly did something illegal like this whether it be a landlord tenant or someone hiring a contractor.

It was nothing like they were told it would be.

I am currently looking more for turn key at this point.

My first start to finish was in Gastonia NC, then Burlington NC then this one in Lexington NC.
