Grit your teeth and muscle through this.

It’s just like anything train your “deal” muscle and soon it will be strong!

I live in Muscle Shoals, AL.

The contractor was about an inch taller than me and a good 60 pounds of muscle heavier. 

You will know and see good deals by pure repetition and muscle memory.

The best part is, you get to be the cash buyer and hopefully muscle out the competition.Best of luck, it can be rough out there right now.

For me I’m not going to get strong armed into a deal especially when we paid beyond what was fair for the house and now he’s trying to muscle me into it.

It appears to me like some of the people flexing their investing muscles and talking big game may not be profiting anymore then the mom and pop operators that are consistently buying single-family housing.

Muscle Shoals, Tuscumbia, Florence, and Sheffield have yet to feel the full effects of the Huntsville development.

I was approved for a loan for 350k and have around 18k for a downpayment, however, as I have been finding in the past year while I enhance my "deal analyzing" muscles, it's hard to find anything more than a 2 bedroom for under 400k - and I've really gotten in there - if by chance you do, it'll need thousands and thousands in repairs and we do not have the cash flow for that on top of the mortgage.
