Our area is red hot right now (I think ~30% increase in value in 3 years) and we feel as if prices may be inflated.We are both interested in real estate and are both planning on working on getting our real estate licenses this winter after we finish up some projects around the house. 

My only red flag to anything in this thread is the "realtor losing patience" part.

If there was a red flag, you'd have a professional in that trade come out and give you a quote.

I see the logistics of getting to the property if needed as an obvious initial red flag. 

And if they take a day to respond is that a big red flag considering how fast buyers need to move on purchasing a good deal these days? 

hey guys, have a question- i found a lender that lends 100% on a property. they dont check credit score or taxes or anything. i have all the details of the loan etc. my challenge is, in the application he wants my drivers license info. is that a red flag or is that normal?

Curious if anyone else sees the red flags. 

Structural, water, and mold issues are huge red flags. 

@Brian Charles there is a lot in this deal that does not add up, first and biggest red flag is two tenants both of which have not paid in over a year????
