I currently put in 80+ hour work weeks while living with family, and should be able to save $50K over the next year to year and a half to enter into real estate investment with.

I have put in many offers in the city of warren

On one I was able to put in the screwdriver, tap it with a hammer and pull it out about a 1/4".

Just put in some offers on some others and waiting to hear back.

Hi all - I've put in a cash offer on this property: http://www.indexpost.com/property-for-sale/wyoming-cheyenne-82007-204-stanfield-ave/ for $75,000 using this formula: Max Purchase Price = Sales Price - Other Costs - Profit - Repair Costs MPP = $125,000 - $10,000 - $20,000 - $20,000 = $75000 All the details about the property are in this post: http://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/88/topics/124943-advice-on-mpp-for-rental-flip-in-2-years My buyers agent informed me that my offer was not the first one the bank was negotiating with, and after that negotiation failed, the bank has now come back to me and counteroffered at the current asking price of $104,900 (which they've just dropped $5,000 from $109,900).

Your problem seems to be that you want to be told the magic shortcut to success in real estate, without having to learn the basics or put in any work.

I know that results will be the bi-product of the work/dedication/education I put in on a daily basis.

I want to put in writing that she is to not market or advertise or put on any mls.

You probably want to get there at least a half hour before the sale, because you don 't want to be a distraction during the sale.

@Nat Chan Your property may have been put in county Tax sale already.
