I find myself looking for subcontractors that do very good work, but for cheaper prices, which requires more management from me.I personally feel like there’s a lot of money being left on the table when you pass up an investment opportunity because it falls slightly below the 70% rule.Now if you’re getting construction bids done at $12 - $20 per square feet like J and others do, then I’m sure you can go below the 70% rule (by the way how in the world can I get to those numbers for rehab bids!?!?

Sometimes he deals fall through. 

It’s does fall within the 70% rule. 21 years left on the lease.

They seemed to be happy and they nodded in understanding.THE SECOND MONTHSomehow during the second month, when the newness wears off and the happiness falls into a routine, the new Tenants become confused.

@Shane Brown I'm pretty sure that place has been on the market longer than that, I think it was for sale when I was looking around last fall, they probably re-listed it - 90k isn't an unreasonble price, that means you have to offer less than 90k and have room to move up.At least go look at it, look at neighboring properties, look at how the tenants live, verify heat type like Amy said, just completely avoid if it's electric heat (it looks like it's Rinnais though) unless you want to spend a few thousand on gas installs.

I bought my first home this fall.

My tip is not to fall out of your comfort zone. 

My daughter is going away to college next fall.

The unfortunate thing is that much of that will fall on deaf ears when you post things with that tone.

I could not get "W" to talk to me and understand her situation deeper, but I asked "B" to pass a list of my questions to "W" and be a mode of communication.Since, this is my first time dealing with a Divorce situation in this business I am very confused and concerned if I will fall into some kind of a trouble.
