I believe this situation was handled in a way congruent with BiggerPockets values and ethos - information was discovered, we gave the user in question an opportunity to respond publicly to the allegations, other members of the community chimed in to make comments and ask questions of their own, I made the decision to close the post because I believe many of the top viewpoints were discussed and I didn't want it to turn into shameless trolling with no additional value, that whole thread remains up for community members to view into the future for transparency and anyone who reads it can form their own opinions with the information presented.

Challenges?

So, I'm challenged right now finding a property that will cash flow well enough for me to pull the trigger.

The challenge is that the property only has a one-hour open house the day before the auction.Here are the details:•Opening bid: $100K•Hard money lender financing: Up to $220K (with my 20% deposit and 100% renovation costs covered)•Comps in the area: $485K–$510K•Estimated rehab (based on pictures): $125KObviously, this estimate could change significantly once I see the property.

Quote from @Ryan Konen: @Chris Seveney I've lost a job at company that was morally challenged when I spoke up they found reasons to dissolve my position.

Challenges?

My challenge is that I’m struggling with figuring out if a property will be profitable or not, even though I've done research on sites like AirDNA and tried to analyze multiple factors.where Im stuck: 1. 

Main difference is that they also handle taxes.

It's very helpful to se the real challenges you've encountered across different markets- especially your point on finding qualified subs and staying away from high-rate lenders. 

However, it was challenging to get it fully occupied due to families etc that were looking for larger units.
