First is that both the 'soft' costs of sales and the 'hard' construction costs are broken out by % so they are easily compared to houses of different sizes and price ranges.

This is a good place to use a broken record technique.

I don't think there is any direct comps like this in this very nice area.So, I'm not sure how to list the price.The inside is not upgraded and pretty basic but neat and clean.At this point, I think a potential owner will live in one and rent the other ( or possibly rent both ) with income about 60K per year fully rented.Originally posted by Jon Holdman:Sounds like you have a lot of equity that you would like to extract and use elsewhere.

I saw an Hud reo about 2 blocks from me that was listed at $159,000 last sold for 433,000 (3bd 1 b) left a message for the agent but he never called back...took a walk there today , couple windows broken but seems okay...should i continue to save ( can't even get $30 in interest from saving account) can someone please give me some suggestions.many thanks

Hopefully, the auction price will end up low enough so that you can make repairs or upgrades and still make a nice profit.One situation to look carefully at is finding out who is living in the house.

You get the funds to replace the structure with similar amenities (sq ft, etc) but with modern materials. ...So, is this true even for older structures, where many "code upgrades" would have to happen?

I've been living in a 1 BR condo for the past couple years but with the Market where it's at right now, It's time to upgrade to a town house.

The long forms are only ok if they're broken up into steps, for example, name/email/phone in the first step, then more information, and at the end you can hit them up with so much information, they will not want to go to the next investor for another quote.We have tested about 40 different designs, forms, layouts, etc and one of the most important things turned out to be the redirect page.

If you haven't upgraded to a Pro membership yet, I would highly recommend it.
