Instead, look at it from the perspective of: "Well, I need to live somewhere, and it may as well be "free" to me so that I don't have $1,000+ going into someone's pocket ever month."

We are based in Columbus Ohio btw (Franklin County).What does everyone think we'll see in April and May? As

(the 75k property was on a great plot, but may as well be bulldozed) The Realtor also did some comps on the duplex and the number for rent in the area were way off from what I was able to get via google, which leaves the property at 30$ cash-flow...

However, even if the market is just 1% of REI, that may a big enough niche to operate in... 

Unless the legal of the foreclosed deed of trust/mortgage actually included both lots, these properties may as well be in different counties.

Unless the ground rent is unregistered (in which case the property may as well be fee simple -- nobody is going to register it now and attempt to collect on it, and you can eventually extinguish it as a matter of law), I don't see how it is possible to go through the closing process and not once be alerted to the existence of the ground rent.

We are paying for the materials anyways so may as well get the points and rewards from the card!

If you're going to use Zillow to process payments, you may as well use their application & have them run credit & background check.

The ROI seems minimal right now but I'd have to imagine that will only grow in time (so may as well get it done now), especially as more EV trucks and large SUVs (travel vehicles) start being released and the prices start coming down as they always do with wider adoption.
