For example, wholesalers are great because generally their properties are off market and you get them at discounted prices.

Smaller banks will typically have a commercial lending division and offer construction loans.

For example in Texas they probably pitch you can make 25-50% government guaranteed returns. 

I will explore my PM options and ensure I explain the fact that the property may need “more attention and TLC” than the typical property.

Examples included missing paint and rotting siding.

I'd look at columbus as a market in ohio we do new construction which appreciates faster and typically has higher demand and stronger rentals.

Its more hassle and management on your end and the tenant's may feel aggrieved if for example 1 tenant is obviously using more of the utilities. 2.

@Quiche LynnIf a home is in foreclosure the options are to work something out with the lender, pay them the amount that is past due or file bankruptcyHow they get the money to pay the lender what is owed can be from any source, but unless that lender is brought current or has some type of arrangement they typically do not stop foreclosure

This is market dependent, but I would consider 2% annual rent increases typical, 3% optimistic and 1% conservative long term in my market. 4.

Everything. 2) Make sure you have a signed contract that is legal and thorough. 3) keep the progress payments relatively equal to the work being done....example - don't pay for tile when you're still doing framing.Go get some bids and then come back and talk to us again...
