Again, this is due to how long it was taking to get work done, the quality and lack of communication (I'm happy to post examples as well), and frankly, the quality of work expected once I realized how many things I was not told about before the purchase.However, you did not offer in any way to address issues left by the prior tenant and made it clear that it was my responsibility.

As an agent who has successfully helped over 25 house hack buyers in the last in 4 years, and have sold over 500 properties in my career, what you are looking for, in the price range listed simply doesn't exist. 

You may not be able to simply Google them.Here's my overall reaction to your post.  

Remember, for any claim, if you can just find one case where that proposed claim does not work it is enough to prove that claim is false.So consider this.They it was told toy uo by others is inherently flawed simply by this fact:If I give you a list of 18 year old people that don't own a house... and that list is 2000 contacts large, how many deals are you going to make?

Simply, its purchase price v sale price. 

So the lack of a clos- et does not necessarily mean a room cannot be a bedroom.However, as Fannie Mae makes clear, the appraiser must consider what is expected in the local market, and what is required by the local city/county."

With that being said, if there are any agents or investors located in Western NY willing to let me learn from them, or simply learn more about them, I am willing to work something out and/or possibly work for free.

So maybe this simply won't work. 

The way wholesalers get around this is by claiming to simply be marketing the contract and not the property itself (hard to do legally), or by doing a double close (buying the property then reselling it immediately).

On the other hand, I’m hesitant to simply pay down more of a property, as we don’t need the immediate cash flow.Fortunately, both my wife’s job and mine are recession-proof, which allows us to be a bit more aggressive with our investments.I’d really appreciate advice from investors who have experience with frequent moves or military service.
