I figured it would be a gamble but with the seller still receiving monthly cash flow, I think that maybe it would be intriguing.  

Please send to me for review, so I can verify authenticity. 

I use the Authentic Plank product from Southwind which is an 8mm thick plank and does not require an underlayment.

Need I mention gambling is legal in Ohio.

I actually don't like middleman banks almost as much as I don't like middleman property managers. lolIn this day in age, I should be able to have access to my money whenever I want, without jumping through hoops: two-factor authentication, giving my SSN, DOB, address, verifying over the phone, etc.

Do I gamble my last dime on a single-family cash cow, or do I roll the dice on a flip and hope Lady Luck is on my side?

If you really want the property and don't mind a small gamble put down an amount of earnest money that you will not be upset to lose and that if you were in the seller's shoes would make you feel OK about taking the property off the market for 60 days and make it non-refundable to be conveyed to Seller upon offer acceptance. 

I had a few appraisals come back from Akron/Clv markets and had the appraiser comment that it is a "down market".If you are targeting the 50k purchases with the 20k rehab and then hopping to refi out afterward you are taking a gamble because if you do not get the 100k value after the rehab you can get stuck in the project or be forced to take a mortgage with a terrible rate.Keep your purchases 80k and up and try to make sure your project costs are over 100k on everything so you can be pretty confident that you'll get the 100k value afterward.

However, it’s a gamble.

But I DO like the very authentic and relatable teachers like Craig Curelop, Mr.
