Jaron Walling said something that caught my attention, "search for and buy a bad roof, leverage it during the negotiation"....especially of the property has been sitting on the market longer than normal for the current market, a "bad roof" might be a gift from the real estate genie.My point is this: get good at estimating and fixing a bad roof (or any particular problem found with most houses that sit on the market longer) and you'll get comfortable buying/fixing properties that scare off other buyers. 

Quote from @Tyler Magee: Hello everyone, I’m looking to get into real estate investing.

Can anyone refer a real estate investor friendly real estate attorney in the New Haven CT area? 

I'm a real estate agent and investor in Charleston.

I am considering starting a new real estate business in the Denver area and would love some feedback on the idea.

What's my 2025 real estate investing goals?

Congratulationswhat you’ve found that both the INVESTMENT side of real estate, and theBUSINESS side are very competitive; therefore profit margins are compressed, so those “home runs” people like to bragg about are actually quite rare.  

- question: so NO real estate agent in this piece?

They are going to have the real costs and lessons learned that will save you lots of time and potentially headaches.
