The Highway 64 property presented a great opportunity due to its low acquisition cost and potential for substantial value increase.

It is about supply and demand. 

The BEST contractors are in high demand, so are picky about doing bids and taking on jobs.

-there is tremendous demand for inventory among both primary buyers and investors. 

I did post the 'Demand to Comply' which he ignored, so now I can post the 'Notice to Terminate' and wait another 10 days.Yes, I have the notice of violations from the city and body cam from the officer. 

With a budget of $300K-$400K, you could potentially find single-family homes or small multi-units in those areas.I'd recommend researching rental demand near universities like Duke or NC State or even checking out neighborhoods with strong job growth near tech hubs.

They’re requesting what feels like an unreasonable amount of information, and the demands keep escalating.So far, they’ve asked for:A video tour of my home officeCredit checks on me and my partnerCopies of the deeds for every property we ownA copy of my partner’s home lease and utility billsBusiness phone billsA signed letter from the bank verifying our accountsBank statementsHonestly, it feels more like qualifying for a loan than trying to become a customer.

If you're working with an investment brokerage, I'd recommend tapping into Tampa and Central Florida markets too—areas like Riverview, Wesley Chapel, and Brandon have been strong for both flips and long-term holds with steady demand.

That gets worse as you get farther out of the cityTLDR: values depreciate, inflation has gone basically nowhere in Japan for a long time, the supply of housing is pretty good compared to demand (unlike the US) and that's because of flexibility with rezoning and development, taxes on rental income are high. 

This would pay us back less than we were owed but still enough to come out whole.We all tried to negotiate a short payoff with the second-position lender, who foolishly demanded payment in full.
