Few landlords and PMs do this and I just don't understand why.Housing Authorities' ease of business varies widely across the country but I find in general, once you learn the processes, you can count on them every time so if something isn't going as it should, you can reach out to keep the train moving on paperwork and such.Feel free to reach out if I can help further.

Hey Kaylan,Stick to the neighborhoods where your middle class Americans live (teachers, mechanics, mailmen, etc) These are the best areas to drive for dollars since most of your end-buyers prefer to flip these homes.Also, look into pulling the Code Violations list from your county - they are essentially driving for dollars for you.Best of luck 

Essentially, you are wanting to get a feeling of the area from a distance before even visiting.

So essentially the land is just sitting there not collecting taxes. 

I know this is not necessarily big in my area but check with a lawyer about an estoppal agreement which is essentially a document that allows the tenant to verify lease terms that way if after you purchase it they cant come to you and say their rent was cheaper or their security deposit was much more than what the seller told you.

I had a misunderstanding to the problem as my experience with divorce was practically none, essentially the court was trying to split everything they had, and the judge took the ZESTIMATE + the rental income for the house and that's what she assessed it as.

I could even potentially get a lease option on the property and then use the tenants rents to pay into that and essentially buy me that property.

The guest essentially said they sit down with the tenant ( or call) and show them comps for rent in the area.

As many other BP enthusiast mention, wherever you invest, it's essential that you form your core four (RE agent, contractor, property manager, lender). 

Being inexperienced means that the requirements will be more strict, at least until you build a relationship with a lender, and then you will be able to get more, close faster, and send less paperwork.
