At first glance, I thought I'd just pay the reinstatement fees and have a semi easy deal.

Keeping the units semi-furnished and utilities in your name will ensure these travel nurses have as little to worry about as possible when moving in, since they only stay for several months at a time.

My ideal situation would be to construct a home for my growing family to live in for 3-4 years and sell once we leave San Antonio (job that requires semi-often relocations).

I would raise the rents, and continue raising them (quarterly, semi-annually?)

need to find a seller finance deal... most likely the only folks that are going to do this for you are those that sell in semi to full blown ghetto areas  or areas that have little to no demand and they are just waiting for someone to take the property off their hands any way they can

- Proximity to our main (and public) location ... 10 mins drive away - Affordability- Existing Improvements & Layout (structures w/ concrete flooring, electric, water well, laydown yard, barbed wire fencing)- Semi-Private location (this will not be a business site where our customers will visit) It's tough for me to get over the environmental concerns of the Junkyard next door. 

(THE STORY)The HO Purchased a home 10 years ago for 88K, 2 Years ago (after watching Flip this House) it was semi-gutted in prep for a rehab BEFORE getting an appraisal to refi to fund the rehab. tisk. tisk.

Perhaps this is just a semi-standard rent-to-own agreement, but it's the first time I've come across such a deal.

Looking at the trends, it seems buying a property in some semi hot areas rather than usual hot/popular places might be a better strategy in today's times, considering less spending power of people.

I'm looking to retire or semi-retire in the Wilmington area.
