@Seth Deitchman Those are great goals:  Through Tax deed auctions you can certainly attain a profitable portfolio of flips/rentals if your Purchase Price is low enough to account for the rehab usually associated with Tax Deeds (as well as the other factors of course: neighborhood, market, etc). 

You will probably have some closing costs associated with the transfer and legal fees as well.

Good Morning Valerie, I believe it is called El Paso Real Estate Investors association.

So talking in generalities where every area is different doesn't make much sense.There is an association of attorney property tax professionals.

I started out working intense physical jobs and eventually put myself through school; I have just finished completing my associates degree in business administration, which is how I was able to work my way up and out of production. 

@Ben VisserIf you're self managing, I recommend you join the Utah Apartment Association regardless. 

I am not a realtor but I think the office, where you're going to be associated with, is going to play a big part.I've seen agents that focus on investing from the larger brokerage such as Remax, B&W, KW etc.

Tenant shall pay for all costs associated with remediating pests from the Premises and shall inform Landlord at first sighting of any pests in order to avoid any infestation of pests.  

The association has contacted us that the unit below has a leak coming from her ceiling below our bathtub.

By understanding the best use of the property, you can figure out the alternative development scenarios for the use or uses that are associated with the development plan.
