It is a highly desirable area to live in the Birmingham area with extremely good schools and very family friendly culture. 

I started out as an agent in Birmingham, AL and did several flips there.

The property is a triplex in the Southside neighborhood of Birmingham AL (B- area, primarily student renters, walking distance to UAB, the local university).

Texas cities will be less than places like Indy or Philly or Birmingham or those, but still more than anything you could ever buy in CA (which I would expect zero or negative cash flow in).

I have a BS from Oakland University in Management Information Resources and a Masters ofScience in Administation in Resource Information Systems from Central Michigan University.My husband and I own a rental house in Michigan (that use to be our home) two lake front lots in Northern Michigan for Speculation properties, and a duplex in Birmingham, Alabama where we live now.

Anyone notice how much paper work is involved in a cash purchase through these asset management companies Homepath etc.I closed one today in Birmingham and there was 9 docs that needed to be notarized and the closing package had 36 pages of documents.And this for an all cash no contingency closing.what happened to getting the hud e mailed to you sign scan return wire funds and your all done.

I see you live in CA but invest in Birmingham.

My name is Preston, and I'm a new member from Birmingham, AL.

I'm also looking to buy rentals in the Birmingham Area.
