The neighbor told us she taught pole dancing in one of the rooms & the guy who bought the home from us found the solid brass pole in the basement & the ceiling header & floor base firmly attached in one of the upper 6 bedrooms.

We might be more willing to finance projects that banks consider too risky, such as fixer-uppers or properties in less conventional markets. 

Someone will eventually come across an opportunity that works for you.Example: I'm a real estate investor looking for a fixer-upper, single-family home or up to four units.

I’m in the upper peninsula and help is hard to find.

(The best part about that is I know that if they're listing a fixer-upper it's not a deal because they would've bought it themselves!)

Appraisers have a license they want to keep, so they aren't going to go out on a limb to support an agent's number.

I’ve thought about selling our current house, using that equity to pay for a single family fixer upper that we’d work on for around a year, and do it again.

I believe it may be a 2 unit rental, with a 3BR 1 BA lower and a 2BR 1 BA upper unit.

A handy search bar in the upper right makes it easy to find previous discussions, blogs, podcasts, and other resources.
