I just need a realistic idea of what im working with.Please dont tear me  a new one lol…I will provide anymore details needed to anyone that can help me.Property 1: (Area Code 75241)1365 sqft4 bedroom (Converted Garage)2 BathCompletely updatedProperty 2: (Area Code 76104)1797 sqft3 bedroom 2 BathCompletely updated "Give a man a fish & he eats for a day, teach a man to fish & he eats for a lifetime"Doing your own DD & making your own SOP's are an important part of running your business.Sold comps only, whatever anyone is asking is just that...asking.Sold within x days (tighter window is more accurate, since markets are fluid) but you may have to go out further but that increases your risk.Like for like, if it's a 3/2/2 don't comp 2/1/2 ,4/2/2 etc.
