Therefore I just bought a house with $123,000 worth of equity when I walked in the door. 

At least ones that will walk the property with you and give you an fair estimate. 

You see a boat jetting across the bay and then he walks into a luxury house.   

LTR could get $3200-3400.3-just purchased in August a townhouse in Costa Mesa California 3 miles from the beach walking distance from the back bay great location.

Along with a kiddy-pool sized litterbox in one corner of a room, cat urine and feces in the OTHER corner of the room on the carpet (newly installed by the seller when I bought), and a smell that made my eyes water walking in the front door.The lease has a clause for Tenant-Caused Damages resulting from tenant negligence.

I recommend having a contractor walk through the property before submitting your offer, or you could make your offer contingent on a contractor walkthrough.

In real terms you would walk away from an investment long before a primary residence and therefore most banks will not allow it for anything less than 10%.

Hello BP Community,I am designing contemporary mountain 2 bedroom / 2 bath cabin in Ohio with a lot of tourists interest year round and four season weather.Here's some amenities that are going to be in the cabin:hot tub on 2nd floor with walk out from each bedroom;wood burning fire place in great room;nice fire pit outside;debating: is putting soaking tub with electric fireplace will be a good investment?

If you have any questions shoot me a message and I can walk you through the process.

In that scenario - I would worry that our long term renters would not like that strangers are walking up their steps and entering the doorway 5ft from their front door every weekend.
