I am under contract on a property that looks like it will not close.When I got the 3 fireplaces inspected, it was only a few hundred dollars extra to chimney sweep them at the time of inspection so we paid to get them swept. 

Thx.The Nassau County REIA meets every 3rd Tuesday of the month in Lynbrook, next meeting is actually tomorrow night.

He is older and does not have a mortgage and there is a lot of deferred maintenance on the property.

Its actually called "interested party" but you need to be listed as this on their policy and they will send you mail notifications

Recently purchased a new property with an upstairs attic studio.

As of 2023, if a single-family home was worth $150,000 in 2019, its appreciation rate could vary significantly from that of a multifamily property bought for a similar price.To break it down further, let's assume both property types appreciated over the years.

While I’d love to invest locally, most properties here are beyond my price range.Right now, I’m compiling a list of potential properties, underwriting deals, and reaching out to Realtors.

You likely only made a down payment of 3-20% ....but you still get to write it off on the full value across 27.5 years.So 400k/27.5 = 14,000 ish a year of a write off where during the year you didn't need to incur an actual expense, no cash outflow. 

Those that are actually good, get called upon/mailed/emailed an obscene amount by other investors.

I'd sell the property and 1031 in to something without an HOA.
