Anchorage is multi-family heavy for owner occupants and investors...so they tend to take decent care of them...at least enough to not get foreclosed on or so run down they cannot resell close to market value.I would encourage you to connect with MULTIPLE RE Investing friendly  agents and let them know what you're looking for.

Just presenting a viable option for closing and immediately reselling?

My sense is that they are underestimating the costs of foreclosing on these properties and then dealing with the tenants post foreclosure to resell them.Does anyone have a sense of what the costs of a foreclosure in Baltimore City would be?

We buy for cash, mark up a small amount, and resell to flippers/investors who want to do all the work & have the team in place.

I am thinking of purchasing a duplex or triplex here in Montreal with around a 40-50% deposit, with the intention of holding onto it until I achieve 100% equity - then possibly resell and make a bigger play with the capital.

Seller owns property free and clear and you guys sign a purchase agreement for 100KYou put down 10% which is 10K to the seller(skin in the game)Your hard money lender put in 90K, which is the rest of the money due to seller, to get to that 100K owed.Then Escrow closes and your seller has the 100K owed to him and then you pay the lender who put in 90K monthly interest only payments till you resell/refinance the property paying off the 90K owed to him.

I want to provide value to the realtor as well, I'm just not sure how on a property I'm not reselling.

Are you a reseller?

Also, I was just there and the one thing you must keep in mind our you flipping to resell in the Puerto Rico population or to the population in the US? 

The judge then asks, "Do you plan on buying this property and then reselling to the new buyer?"
