Red flag potentially here.

Often times, we find red flags during the detailed analysis that kill the deal (most of the times, it is major repairs needed) but that is a part of the game :)

I'm a FTHB so looking for advice here, because it seems like there could be a lot of red flags about having a pond.

How do you find the right one that works for you and what are some red flags?
