With the price to build more expensive, everyone's HOI is outdated.

Some people on here say that realtors and real estate brokers initiated the changes when in reality the mass foreclosures in states like OH and FL caused regulators to rethink their outdated laws. 

I have a small list of cash buyers in my data base but it is mostly out dated so I am hoping to drum up some fresh leads for all cash buyers that are active in my immediate local market surrounding Concord CA.Your insights are much appreciated.

I think the typical outdated homes will sell for a 10-20% discount to new home buyers who don't know how to estimate repair costs/time to repair (I know as I did this with my first house!).

Thats no joke either even if you just rent your properties it will take three to six months just to get them infront of a judge and even then you still have real fight to get them out. Dates

This scenario would also provide an opportunity to get to the remaining outdated mechanics and prevent the eminent emergency repairs on the 100+ yr old plumbing.

If your mind is set on using the outdated MLS system - there should be no reason for asking for ways to market your properties.

It was also outdated which made it a perfect candidate for a fix and flip.

@Chris LainoDepends purely on the level of work that's needed for the home.At a certain level of physical distress, you won't be able to get a traditional loan product due to inspection or appraisal issues.If it's just outdated, you can still use a traditional product.Below that, properties in severe distress need to be purchased with a rehab loan or a hard money loan or cash.When the property is in poor condition, the deeper the discount.

The house is a mess and outdated.
