If you're working off of what you should expect to pay from some book or workshop that's from 2010, you're going to be sorely disappointed at what the prices are today.  

The Deal....Preforeclosure 2/1.5, last unit in row of 6 townhouses (built early 1900), 100yds from highway offramp (bit of an eye sore but trees block noise well and can't beat the location (fenced back yard=no noise) in great area walking distance to 2 hospitals, 3 breweries, downtown area, college town but far from the school, big military town.3.  

Drunk and disorderly conduct in public?

Are they ugly boxes and run amok eyes sores littered with junk cars and mattresses or very sharp properties?

@John Powell Thanks, I definitely had to do something to cover up that eye sore of a hot water heater.

Tenant turnover can be the sore spot for most landlords, which is why screening is so important.

I hate to do them favors, but it would get rid of the eye sores.

(This was a house that was gifted to me,  and has been int he same family since the 1960's or so...).To me, it's a slight eye sore, as well as a potential sanitation issue, if not now, then at some point.

I'm Currently Active duty Navy in the Hampton Roads area ....I'm fresh in the world of investing but I've always wanted this since I was 17 years old and the Carlton Sheets era was bombing lol but money wasn't the motive I've worked house and help my dad around the house and that feeling of ownership and knowing that taking an eye sore and making it your vision is one of the besting feeling ever.

Now I woke up with a sore throat, sneezing, extremely stuffed up, etc.
