There are usually, plenty of issues with new homes, I would strongly recommend still having a home inspection before closing (if you haven't had a formal home inspector come out) and making the builder address any AND all issues, it's a new home, it should be near perfect.

Hey Katie, Yes It's a good market for fix and flip, back than in 2019-2021, it was also a good market for Brrrr, but I think nowadays it's hard to make a perfect Brrrr and to cash out all or most of the money back, but yes let's hear what people have to say :)

No place is perfect.

I have a newly remodeled 5 bed 3 bath house perfect for a family, yet I'm unable to receive any offers.

I always add that if people are truly factoring in all the ways real estate makes you money, then there are some markets that make perfect sense as an investment even if you pay retail.   

A perfect example of this is Detroit, where a friend of mine purchased 100 SFR in 2011 for $300k, or $3,000 per house.

I have a home in escrow right now and it’s perfect for sober living because of the area and how the house is set up.

It’s often the best way to find the perfect off-market property.

In real estate we say "everyone wants the perfect house, at the perfect location, at the perfect price, but you don't get all three, so pick the two that are most important to you," and this is an example of that.

Borrowers need to have 9 Months' P&I worth of liquidity (cash / stocks / bonds / crypto / etc), and 100% net worth relative to the loan amount.
