If you want it to look nice and have good curb appeal, don't skip this!

I want to give people a nice place to live at a decent price. :) Has anyone bought a property without an income?

Nice ideas. 

If stock is higher they buy less and if everyone panics and start selling off they buy more.I do have some clients that are not experts and have had nice run ups in stock values but they are cashing out and moving into real estate as they do not fully understand the stock market to navigate it's future ups and downs.   

The kitchen looks nice!

I was at my local water hole the 9 months I spent there.. and saddled up to a nice guy who happened to be a used car dealer I asked him the same question how can you take that risk.His answer was classicSON  my clientele  will live here their entire life  they may drive to New Orleans once or twice in their life.. when I sell them the car I always get where their moma lives.. and if they don't pay we just drive around till we find it.. most of my clients will live work and die in a 5 mile area..

I work as a sales engineer but have been spending the last year researching the real estate game and the B.P. community seems to be very nice and helpful so I'm glad to be here!

if there was no equity and no upside you would not be getting anyone calling or contacting you.if someone is willing to clear the foreclosure and do a JV on the upside that would be a good out come just have attorney put together a nice JV agreement and record it post sale. if there truly was no equity NO one would be giving you the time of day.. the only people that generally chase no equity forclosures are the no money take title too and want to own rentals folks..

It's in a high raise building, where each square feet weights.

If the house is as big as I'm picturing you could get a nice triplex or even a quadplex, go as big as you can, and live in a unit.
