If you Flippers, buying off Wholesalers, have your own vocabulary based on some grading of standards of Rehab yet to be performed, then I hope those varying valuations also come with a working crystal ball (I've yet to find one).It certainly does NOT surprise me that Flippers are finding it hard to get what I call a "proper deal" from a Wholesaler.

@Crystal Smith did you ever find a good Chicago attorney to handle foreclosures from tax deeds?

I am buying across the ferry in Crystal Beach. 

As @Crystal Smith said, first make sure how much you can get preapproved for VA loan.

I have seen the effect of appreciation because of the major increase in property from 2010 to now and wish we would've bought a condo back then but I didn't have a crystal ball.My other question is whether to purchase a SFH for our personal home since I feel like i'm throwing away good money on rent every month (3300.00 a month!)

No one has a perfect crystal ball.

You're asking a handful of questions that unfortunately nobody will have the answer to, because nobody has a crystal ball.With that being said, yes it will be much more challenging to pull off a BRRRR in a declining market.Doing a BRRRR on a single family home is a very different strategy than getting into multifamily and forcing appreciation through renovations and raising rent rates.I don't think it is a good plan to rush into anything in this environment. 

My crystal ball says we’ll have high inflation for the next 12-18-24 months unless there is some other major economic event to either shorten or lengthen that timeline.

NO trailers on land or flood zones in Crystal River going north on 19Thank you,Craig

I scraped off crystallized dried cat urine from the floor in double garage, using a garden hoe, then we power washed it, used hydrogen peroxide in gallon jugs from beauty supply applied that to help get more of the urine up and off..
