An alternate title for my post could be 'Flippers and the Law of Diminishing Spreads'!

Even a block away is too far, since the effects from the road diminish quickly

When I feel comfortable that I understand the investment, then I'm willing to invest more because the risk diminishes.

It's also probably going to be a lot more expensive to purchase than in a failing economic area with a diminishing population.

And,Lastly... and as mentioned in previous posts... you are going to have to develop an active buyers list... keeping in mind that your opportunities to sell into that list are going to be diminished if some or most of those buyers are not cash buyers... but have to obtain financing to take the deal down.Best of luck!

With the very liquid market afforded by technology today this value center is greatly diminished IMO.

As long as there is a value other than a diminished salary due to unpaid overages - in your case exposure to influential "movers" - the utility can be found.

I've talked to a couple brokers and they say they have some lenders who will do deals with me if I have 40% down but that doesn't make a whole lot of financial sense because my returns are significantly diminished.

My concern as someone just beginning and without high volume at this point, is if they will go for the diminished commission on the A to B side.

At some point the law of diminishing returns kicks in and that 2k granite job just gave you $500 in equity.
