Ill network with BP friends and just keep looking forward.

If they don't answer the door, at least open the door to ensure it's occupied then lock it up and post a notice demanding they contact you within 72 hours or face eviction.They could be dead, abandoned, moving in their three friends and sixteen cats, etc.

Through friend that know that I am in the rental business, negotiation focused on making sure that there are no surprises, like large outstanding bills, lawsuit, legal problem, due to foreclosed condition.

When I consulted with friends and family, they discouraged me from buying because the building was a liability.

I have a friend who owns a home that needs to be renovated.

My goal is to obtain $70,000 in passive income with a long term buy and hold strategy withing the next 10 years.I want to achieve this so that I can comfortably travel the world and gain life experiences, spend more time with friends and family, and pursue any other goals or interests without having to rely on a full time job.

If it’s a good investment you will find interested people at local REI meetings, or perhaps a friend that has an interest and is willing to do a JV under terms you set?

Good afternoon,Started to help some friends out in their PM/Owners company in their effort to get a few newly acquired distressed properties into shape.
