Allowing pets, including the dogs nobody wants (excluding pitbulls, unless your landlord policy specifically covers them), will give you access to qualified tenants that otherwise can't find places that allow them. 

Please DM me - I can give some pointers on how to get started including in the Multifamily space.

They say they charge 10%, but that doesn't include finding new tenants, renewals, upcharge for maintenance, etc.

In total, including money lost from rent, legal fees, and repairs, the situation cost almost $30k.

.: I didn’t realize the closing statement items were handled a different way and not included on the SchE.

Vacant properties can sometimes be the way to go because you can try and get top market rent, as well as include any fees or protocols that might not be in a standard lease.  

When looking for cash flowing markets.. a lot of investors, including myself, are looking in cities like Cleveland.

Since you won’t be managing this yourself, clarify upfront if the GC’s fee includes coordinating subcontractors, pulling permits (if needed), and handling inspections. 2.

Building a 4,000-square-foot, three-story duplex with a 1,000-square-foot ADU could cost about $1.83 million, including construction and permits (excluding land).

Quote from @Adam Macias: Wholesaling as it is today will be a thing of the past.It’ll truly be strange to even hear people and gurus trying to make big money off it.The more people try wholesaling but then end up not having an end buyer or cancelling contracts or trying weird things like novations, the more all of real estate will be regulated and cause requirements like licensing to be able to transact more than just your personal resident purchase.Which I don't know why hasn't happened sooner.Here's all the states (in red or yellow) requiring a license to wholesale or at least have started the process:Credit: REITipsterI think licensing and regulation is a beautiful thing that should happen if you plan to be an wholesaler and do more than one deal... which is going to be the case for anyone taking this business seriously.Or even it being regulated to need a real estate agent to do more than one deal outside of buying a personal residence.I've had plenty of failed attempts with agents in pursuit of wholesale deals and I know exactly why, it's not because the agent couldn't find me deals, it's just not practical to think there's opportunity for the numbers a wholesaler needs to make a profit on top of everyone else needing to these days.Because the only sellers who truly can sell at a deep enough discount are usually those who ran out of time and just didn't do something sooner with their situation.I know many coaches and gurus will disagree with me but there’s no regulations on youtube gurus and what they teach either.If we look at the current state of the market in hot cities, the availability of online resources to the average homeowner, how many deals can you possibly believe are available at 70% of ARV?
