Im completely shocked 18 isnt considered an adult in Alabama.

I would plan for 75-150k, which normally shocks people. 

This one was, but could have been a shock to a newby Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I would be shocked if you don't find a plumber who will do it for $150-$200.

I can tell you the last person I evicted was shocked, and was having to live with friends because no one would rent to them... not even a mobile home... and they had a family of 4 with a dog.  

You’d be shocked by how little actual screening many PMC’s do!

I’m actually pretty shocked nobody has even given me a low ball offer on the house at this point.

I'm too shocked to laugh at this. :)Syndicated deals might leave ~10% for the person who finds and structures the deal, maybe another 10% for managing it, and 80% go to the cash investors. 1% interest and 10% equity on any amount of a cash partner is a joke.

@Kenneth Soles  lastly to put it into perspective.this is not a shock to people if  you lose a home for tax's or non payment of Mortgage.. these folks have been dealing with this for in most cases years.... its not like you woke up one day and you lost your house.the folks that really have it rough though are tenants who did not know the landlord let the house go to foreclosure..
