I closed for both sides and had a chase them round for final signatures.Also might I add the property could be falling down, you basically have to send your staff out to take pictures and videos to send to them to get them to even budge on any price.These homes they have have been sitting a long long time and most cases they are on the city’s list of zombie homes and ready to be demolished, you won’t find that out with no title search and survey, you find that out the day your workers show up to work ready to get this thing back to livable to be met with more money spending ventures.Bottom line.

Finally I came to my senses and served them a 'Notice to pay rent or vacate by the 10th of January' after which I plan to file an eviction.

I ended up having to pay for their tax preparer’s time to (finally) meet with me and make corrections.

We quickly saw its potential and finalized a deal with terms favorable for a successful flip.

** This is part 6 of me documenting my fun and often stressful real estate journeyThe nightmare is finally over.Today I close on my second flip ending what will hopefully be the roughest period of my investing journey.

It only takes a few minutes to comply, and this way, you don’t have to worry about any decision they finalize on later.

I've seen estimates that are off by 300% when all said and done (e.g. the original bid was $10k but the final cost was closer to $30k).

I am on the west coast, but have a SFH in Pigtown and believe I am finally at the point of needing someone "in town". 

I have been researching tankless heaters, and I'm leaning towards an electric tankless heater to save space and finally be able to wash laundry in-house.

So, if you don't have time to do that, you can hire a PMC to do placement only, even an agent, but recommend YOU have final say on approving them.
