I have a car magnet on our truck (which we use to run around our rentals).

I sent it to my hillbilly dad who drives truck over the road, he emailed me back and said he laughed so hard his dentures fell out...........now thats funny.I also sent it to my nice little 'ol lady of a mother......she didn't see the humor

You will need to provide earnest money and proof of funds.There are also alternative strategies (selling the LLC or land trust) which I have no experience in so I won't comment.These two factors are not big enough factors, in my own experience, to deter new or experienced wholesalers from trying to wholesale REO's.

Either they are so wealthy that they live in an alternate reality, or else they are just rare.

You could save a little by leaving your unit on the old system and replace that later.A more costly alternative would gas hot air heat requiring new ducts, but would make central air possible.We've done both alternatives many times.

I let him have all my dads guns, and I took dads grizzley 4 wheeler, and his truck and car and a big trailer.

It did have pipes that did burst, but like Account Closed the work was above ground and in the walls.An alternative that I looked into was re-piping the home in PEX through the attic.

Although the most rewarding part of the experience is helping the residents who come through our doors, it is also a lucrative alternative to a rooming house or a regular rental.

You will have the ability to set up SD IRA and use for investing in alternative assets.

I literally jumped in at the market opportunity after the crash with opportunities to acquire real estate at prices significantly below the replacement value on relatively new properties.Going forward, I would like to: 1) participate in other markets that have lagged in the recovery - thinking about Atlanta and Milwaukee markets,  2) expand to multi unit, 3) partnering with other investors and 4) alternate sourcing of properties - from wholesalers/flippers or paying finders fee.In addition, I want to get a feel for the forums before committing to the Plus/Pro option.Looking forward to participating.Regards,Peter
