., you are describing the property from a tenant or homeowner perspective.  

Good morning guys!Hope all is well! In a couple of hours, I will taking a walk through my first property, and really have a two part question:1. What kind of repairs would be considered red flags for wholesaling prope...

Some/many will disagree but I think it's a short-term view - but trust me, if you start getting on bank's blacklists you may never get off of them.

Google Earth and Google Street View, in my opinion, are good tools to use from time to time, but not to be used in lieu of true due diligence.

Interesting article offering yet another view of the housing market moving forward.http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-03-31/this-new-indicator-shows-there-s-no-bubble-forming-in-u-s-housing?

My point is to try and take a 10,000 foot view.  

Without exaggeration, it has changed my life beyond what I could describe here.  

Pulled this link from the internet regarding a description of contract for deed, which looks like what you are describing.  

So far, I've been reading anything I can get my hands on (books on real estate investing and real estate taxes) , listening to podcast, and also viewing a few youtube videos as well.

Since I've been around bigger pockets and learning and reading voraciously I haven't seen anyone really take Zillow seriously.There is one property in there he described as a "crack house" that needs $6K work on it before it is rent ready.
