Purchase price: $150,000 Cash invested: $1,500 A month ago my banker (who's is also also an agent) from my home town where I have other properties called me and asked if I wanted to buy this house.

Just wanted to revive this conversation: Any recommendations on one versus the other? 

Cash invested: $80,000 Acquired this property Sub-to as a quick flip with minimal repairs required.

would appreciate if any leads from this forum. thank you ! 

There is really no data on this so most of the numbers are just proposed.

It’s great to see your enthusiasm, and you’re in the right place—this community is full of knowledgeable and supportive investors, professionals, and entrepreneurs.

Any thoughts on how to choose - what metrics to evaluate, resources to read to help?
