Go Bears, @Colin Fitz Patrick!

Hi@Patrick Philipyou should check with the city for code violations open or expired permits and municipal liens.some title companies does not consider those as title defects and wont order it. ask them first before you start doing your research.also drive around the area, call Realtors signs ask to see these houses , ask questions about the price , days on the market and how much are the owners flexible on the price.

I agree with @Patrick Wheeler: taking on a fixer upper as your first investment purchase is difficult unless you have the resources and a clear plan.
