At some point, if you do enough notes (but for the lucky few, it could be your first note deal) consider death and holding during an estate settlement, bankruptcy, law suits, title issues found on your watch, insured losses and settlements and God just saying this isn't going to work as you thought.

I would say a place that posts on Craig's list (meaning it's in decent shape) would start at $1,200 for a 2 bed 1 bath.

The bacteria produces a gas that smells like S, & it can certainly damage the resin bed in an ion exchange unit or produce a black slime that builds up inside the unit.

I have four 2 bed / 1 bath units.

I wrote them off and continued to market the property when, about ten days later, they popped back up with some baloney story about a death in the family and begged me to lease them the property.

I'm asking 28K for it.The other is a small 3 bed 1 bath single family rental home about 950sf.

3 bed , 1 bath , attached garage , nice fenced in back yard with a little over 1,000 sqft.The seller is very motivated and says she's wanting 20k or less.

The reason why they are moving is because they are currently living in a one bed room, and needs more space for his growing family.Yesterday I met up with him at his church so I can talk with his pastor.

Just make sure it extends past the landscape bed just a little or it will flood out the bed, if there is one.

You have to be sure you will be able to earn greater than your interest rate.Things you need to do: First you need to know Fair Market Value on the date of death.
