I recently bought my first duplex where the inspection report mentioned the possibility of prior water damage in the basement.

It’s not a place where you can just buy anywhere and expect success.

In Central Jersey where the majority of our sales activity is, the towns vary widely in enforcement of this. 

Because we live in Wisconsin where winter sucks and there isn't a ton to do we decided to take our receipts from Aldi into our local grocery store and compare costs. 

If that’s the case, I’d recommend considering areas outside of Dallas proper where you can still find properties with strong growth potential.Cities like Prosper, Melissa, Princeton, and Anna are excellent options to explore.

Hi Dave in Northern, NJ-I am sorry to hear you have a single family rental facing foreclosure.You have it in an LLC and wonder what your options may be to delay foreclosure.Lenders do not want to take properties back and have a nonperforming loan.The best time to work with your lender is as soon as possible but certainly before the sheriff's sale.After the sheriff's sale, there is a redemption period where you can still sell it and the length of time varies from state to state and may depend on if it is vacant (avoid that for a variety of reasons), if tenants have a lease and have rights, or if someone is occupying the property.Working with the lender may not be easy but do not give up.Also, reach out to investors, who buy properties in foreclosure or pre-foreclosure, and see if they would be interested in curing the default and buying the property.To Your Success!

I took a picture of the hours for my own reference and get chastised by the employee for taking a photo, which is "not allowed at government facilities"....Enough of the rant,  fellow Illinoisans or else where any tips on how to work on government time while trying to hit closing deadlines. 

I understand there are many limitations to short-term, or even mid-term rentals down there now, but hoping to see some insights on areas where I might see more of a demand. 

This is the first time I have done something like this, where it was for other reasons besides not paying rent. 

I do / done many rent to own (contract for deed) and a few seller finananced deals where I keep the note.Why not in parallel use a flat fee listing on MLS too?
