Sound investors are not impressed that anyone has $10,000 of elaborate tattoos on their hide, instead of $10,000 invested in business.Planning a routine trip to the airport -- start early, drive a different route through a new residential area every trip, going anywhere, anytime.

If you are uncomfortable with assigning the contract you can always double close.  

You maintenance projections are a little low because while the routine stuff is basic when you have to replace the furnace, the roof, it is going to raise your overall cost up a bit.  

Hello BP, for the area to growth there must be some future projects going on and current infrastructure that are hard to duplicate, but it is wise to purchase an apartment near to schools, malls, places of worship & etc because of the traffic, noise pollution and extreme density that may actually increase the tenant turnover as it is uncomfortable to live in such location?

To be honest, if it was 85K and then the waterfall wasn't so lob-sided (or if he was the one managing the property), I would not feel so uncomfortable. 

We both wake up in the morning dreading our daily routines of going to jobs that we both hate but pays well.

I'm in agreement with @Brian Pulaski's  comment above that it's better to have straight talk between Realtor and client than to have uncertainty and ambiguity because someone is afraid of having to explain something uncomfortable and risk losing a deal.  

The more I look into the property I think It could be a 'lipstick' flip for some quick revenue vs. the buy and hold routine.

Is a great house hack deal really worth my safety and feeling uncomfortable where I live?

Also, I've noticed there are many bank sites out there that list their REO's.... are there any good (free or pay) sites out there that routinely aggregate this data?
