If they started after the crisis they probably have a great record but it is mostly a function of the rising market rather then than their unique skills.

The challenge is getting a HUD house at a purchase price that makes sense.

You are not going to be very unique and original.

Borrowing against it is hard due to credit challenges.

Every deal is going to be different, and every different exit strategy is going to have its unique set of factors that you'll want to investigate, analyze and be aware of.Pick up a good real estate development text book, take some university-level real estate courses and find someone doing what you want to do and see if you can get them to spend some time with you.

During my search on BP it looks like some people don't believe they will get the ROI on spending the money to separate meter on any property...then there are some that do  RUBS, submeter...ect.ADU's are unique and wanted to see if anyone has done one and what their experience and thoughts were.Any and all advice is appreciated.Thank you,Ronnie

Due to the unique vacation rental market, non-water front properties don't get the same attention, because most of the vacation rental owners are out of state.  

Hi Everyone,After several inspections that I did (4 to be accurate), I start to think that my inspector is not professional as I got used to from other states I bought...The report almost has no photos, most of the data is general for all report (such explanation on the issue that is being tested) and complete areas that he doesnt check (for example in case of rodent - he completely stops the inspection in the room/space/area).From old inspections I did, all reports were with plenty of data, pictures (and one unique contractor in Las Vegas even had price assessment!).

Most designers work on high dollar and high budget projects that are created to be unique which is a terrible fit for flipping anything but very high dollar homes.

On the other hand, if this were the average person who knows nothing about real estate, then the FSBO can be somewhat challenging for them.
