Look at if they are concentrated to one building or is it the whole area that is bad.If you have limited capital investors might go for the bad areas.

Don't assume anything, I'd bet the neighbor wouldn't be crazy about the increased concentration and traffic on the driveway.

With a very well paying job I just concentrated on saving as much as I could but now find myself mixed up in a bunch of things....The first property I bought was a fancy 450K penthouse condo which was great for the 5 years I lived there.

It now rents for $425 as it's located in a large concentration of 4 families and apartments.

Right now I'm simply concentrating on acquisition.

CAUTION: If you use a high concentration of bleach you will probably have to use a whole-face respirator that's rated for gas filtering.

I currently concentrate on Rentals but am thinking again of getting into wholesaling for capital.The issue I ran into last year when looking into it was with the new Michigan laws as well as title companies not allowing double closings unless the full purchase price is brought to the table by me first as the wholesaler.I understand and somewhat agree with the new laws in regards to disclosure with the home owner and the intentions of a wholesaler.

- Decided some short-term & long-term strategies to concentrate on, Wholesaling, REOs, preforeclosures, probates, maybe some buy & holds for passive income then maybe the wonderful world of note-discounting.- Written a mini-marketing plan and started a direct mail marketing campaign.- Business cards and domain name although website has not been created.- Made a couple of great new friends that I communicate with regularly.Now we are paying for some state-specific investing education because we are not adverse to it but thanks to the BP community I know what we DO NOT need to pay for.

Just looked at another agent's web site who also concentrates on REOs, and his list is also much smaller than its been in the past.

Start building a buyers list so that if you run into something that doesn't fit what you decided to concentrate on, you can run it past your buyers.Good luck,donrock
