I learned to manage properties by watching my PMS do it.

But if you do and especially if you are a Real Estate Professional, lender, title, escrow company, home inspector, appraiser but most importantly a homeowner or buyer you should set aside some time to watch the following video: What is MANUFACTURED HOME FOUNDATION?

Of course, we just want to try to get the best deal possible as this is our first flip and there is sooooo much competition in our area.I've read and watched the webinar about tax (lien) sales and I have been learning about some of the things to be aware of (THANK YOU, BP!).

or talk to a property manager, or like us watch for "For Rent" signs and how long they are up.

As part of that, I have been watching zillow/trulia listings, the BP market place, craigslist, several local property sites, etc.

I actually watched this one being redone because I look in this area a lot for homes for sale and saw the subcontractors there constantly. 

Redfin.com is the next best thing to having MLS access...also HomeSnap.com, they're both connected to ARMLS and they both have private notes features where you can track and make notes on each property you're watching (although Redfin is eliminating that feature, write them and ask them not too!!)!

I've got a good background of it from years of watching and learning from my father.

Hi, BP WORLD can someone please explain to me why some buyers want to buy for $5,000 and only want to do $5,000 in repairs, this is not logical to me, if you buy at this price you have to know it needs a lot of repairs, are they coming from another galaxy and heard that they can buy a property for $5,000 move in ready with light cosmetic work.

First things first, watch webinars, read blogs, try to get educated ASAP.
