@Cordell Hinton-BrownWelcome to the site.Glad to see your able to get back on the horse after a few bumps in the road.Keep at it and i'm sure you'll do well.

Finally catch em and sold my show horse to pay bill and this lousy Atty didn't contact and make some deal.  

I thought this was interesting but wanted to hear it from the horse's mouth.What sort of ads do you buy, if any?

We originally thought about building out there and moving, but our plans have changed.1st option-sell. 2nd option-split and sell3rd option-buy, build home, and sell4th option-buy and hold(put a few tiny homes or nice front porch style single wides and  a horse barn). 

Try talking with some local investors who are landlords renting multi-unit buildings and talk to them.Your best bet is probably to call the city directly and get the answer straight from the horses mouth...

I have thought about wholesaling it....but there's one problem: I'm putting the cart before the horse because I don't have a buyer's list.

hello all, and let me start by saying i know i am probably beating a dead horse here. i've read similar topics but would like a little more specific advice to help with that warm and fuzzy so thank you in advance for sticking with me.back to the question at hand... i am into my tenth year of service in the military and have always been a renter. i kick myself for not taking the plunge into buying my own home before now but the thought of being a home owner / landlord is very intimidating. but regardless my wife and i have made up our minds its time to invest some of our income and get a return on my BAH. we are currently in fayetteville nc and have settled on the idea of buying a house around $115,000 putting our mortgage with tax and insurance around $700 a month in an area that rents in the $900-$1000 range. our plan is to put as much into the mortgage as we are willing to spend on rent ($1200) to help pay it down before we PCS again. when we do then rent it out and use it as an investment property. cash flow would be nice here, but since we want to move into a livable home and i dont have the resources / time to rehab a fixer upper breaking even is okay with us. long term goal here is to sell when i retire to effectively collect on what our renters have put into the house for us.are we off our rockers here?

The house is a 2 br and 2bt horse property that needs repair on over 40 acres of land and the property next door is 4br 4 bt beautiful home on same size property sold for $1.7mil november of 2011.

They need to get off their high-horse becuase they would probably be taking just as long.

It is time to rotate some of those dollars out of stocks and into real estate as seed money for this new endeavor.I may be putting the cart before the horse here, as I am looking to try one cosmetic or advanced cosmetic flip to see if it suits me, but given the great fun I have had working with subs on projects on my personal property and my fascination with construction and transforming spaces, I believe that it could easily be something I continue to do.
