At this point I am looking to dig a bit deeper into real estate investing.

I am a newbie with a predilection for systems and processes, so I found Mike’s post amazing.Now let me dig a little deeper on your tip.

If not I would put those aside and circle back when you have time to  dig a little deeper.  

However, there are a few things to consider, and it would be in your best interest to dig a little further in my opinion (if you haven't already).First, were you ever aware of any "out of the norm / significant" structural issues with this wall, the basement / foundation in the area of this wall, or any issues with the tree roots under the slab or hitting your dwelling in any significant way? 

I circled back with my husband, and we will dig a bit deeper and focus on one to max 2 areas where we want to invest and find a good agent in this area over bigger pockets.  

You’ll likely find it’s not going to work so make sure you dig a little deeper. 

(So dig a little deeper in area searches) Irvington for buy and hold properties (this area has been unique as well as stable for some time with buy and holds), other areas for fix and flip would be Haughville (truly seeing some changes in the market recently and level of finish to homes), Brightwood, Bates-Hendricks and most recently near Riverside bound by 16th St to the North, 10th St on the South- Indiana Ave & River/Fall Creek East & West.

This is helpful information and I will see if I can dig a little deeper to get a more concrete answer.

If you can dig a little deeper into his motivations, that will help guide your purchase strategy.

And with all the comps being new it just might not be there.I'd dig a little deeper into your friends statement about the 70% equity, I don't understand it.
