I'm too embarrassed to call into Dave's debt-free screams or millionaire theme hours, but then again, most of those folks are getting out of the land of stupid, not building a massive balance sheet or getting out of the rat race with tons of 'passive' cash-flow.  

I feel like as the winter is coming (cue GoT theme song), the market will slow down just a little bit.

I made my offer at $147k (So I can at least snag $150 a door and maybe $200 down the road, but that's speculative) because at $175k (list price) there's no profit, I would say it's a loss if you add the time involved in organizing the deal, and $180k, you're cheating yourself.Your monthly maintenance is too low, I would at least say $100 bucks a month, if you include cap ex make that $170 a month.There's no profit in the deal, the square footage of the house sucks, you have no backyard, no garage, you're going to need to build a car port, you're within kissing distance of another duplex so you have no privacy, and it doesn't matter how close it is to the med center, your rents will stay low due to the fact that the property is missing the aforementioned features. 

I'll be hiring a GC, getting an itemized contract, and after reading the thread on mistakes never paying before work is completed... that seems to be an important recurring theme/

The "after" pictures brought a modern theme to the property.  

I'm really interested to hear what the community thinks about Trumps 1st official act as President being a suspension of the new Mortgage Insurance Premium cut.  

Using facebook ads to stay in front of theme.

I'm not disagreeing that playing the 'numbers game' works, but operating this way shows a real lack of character.What's more, contacting a FSBO for a listing unsolicited - even if you're being perfectly honest in your intentions - is a violation of DNC laws in many states (mine included), and is grounds for a suspension of your license (at least here).  

Cute little 2/1 and I don't know yet what kind of theme I'll use - I'm thinking 'tropical'. 

Just develop a theme with your interior art.
