However I know I can push UP the sale price and cut the repairs to just what is needed.

Because this house will eventually become the tenants, all maintenance cost will be pushed onto the tenant.

Don't let frustration push you into a bad property, instead learn where to find a better deal.

We've pushed prices HIGH with this method, simply because agents like to bring properties to their investors in exchange for the listing post-flip.Another, more target approach, is hiring a few outbound call agents to cold call investors and put together their buying criteria.

Keep pushing forward.

A good power wash and coat of paint on the outside goes a long way too.You can get estimates from many mobile home-specific contractors that understand these needs if you are not going to do it yourself.Basic repairs on a decent old home can run between $2,500 to $15,000 depending on how bad of shape it's in.

It's a commercial garage around 7K sq. ft. which was built in the late 1960's and will be used as a location for my car wash business.

Myself and Tim Williams from 21st Mortgage were the only two people who pushed for an industry task force on the Dodd-Frank Act and we were the first to pledge money and legal talent to that task force.

But I get why seasoned investors always push to buy lower maintenance buildings. 

Recent comps should push it to about $145-150,000.
