Cash flow would be ideal, but for this particular property I’m most concerned with the location being one we’d want to live in (A+, A neighborhood, ability to find renters, needs cosmetic work but still liveable, and at least break even (not counting assumed appreciation).

However, the location really makes me concerned.

There are also liability issues, privacy concerns, and asset protection factors to consider.

I'm a little concerned about the future when Foster is reduced, but like others have pointed out in other forums, that really helped spur growth in other trendy areas. 

As far as concern over being able to lock in the sale, just ask her to sign a letter of intent or offer to buy an option from her.

The thing that concerns me is the rising interest rates.

I am mostly concerned with making sure each of our trades are staying within our contracted time frames in order to make sure jobs get completed on time.Thanks!

My name is Stephen Burtin and I currently work as an accountant in Wichita, KS. I have been interested in real estate since high school, but I just never took the leap. I suppose I was waiting for an ideal time, but...

I have looked into adding my name to the deed as joint tenants, or tenants in common but my biggest concern is that if anything were to go wrong (e.g. while renting it out), my dad’s name would still be on the deed and therefore still partially liable (I would like to assume full legal liability).

I understand market concerns as well as standard marketing methods, but I am really wondering if anyone has done any effective, outside-the-box marketing that has helped them sell their flip property.
