Starting to see lots of good deals here…  We are getting tons of buyers coming from your neck of the woods.

@Cory Binsfield   We're in the same neck of the woods. 

Insurance, whether on cars or homes is a pain in my neck. eg, I have a carrier that insures most of my rentals but won't insure those that don't have central heat.

Yes, it may cost a little more but better than $0 and no legal issues.In our neck of the woods the wholesalers charge a deposit which is almost their intended profit $5k to $7.5k

there is HUGE money in Timber far more than you could ever make swapping housesin your neck of the woods you need 20 plus acres of tree's that are so big at DBH  ( diameter at Breast Height) that you can't wrap your arms around them and touch..

One of my largest owners I manage for is from your neck of the woods.

You can easily do the same in your neck of the woods.  

In these pockets, an investor does not need to make a new construction nor fit multiple units to cover the mortgage of the property like you do in your neck of the woods (Fairmount/Brewerytown/Sharswood if I'm not mistaken) where the acquisition and rehab is so high that you need to make as many 1-2 bed units per property as possible.

Always replace with new where you can, always have store muscle haul the appliance to its designated place and haul the old one away.

I've actually been doing research on properties close to your neck of the woods...
