It just makes too much sense if you have a choice to go for a 60k listing needing 20k of repairs and possible surprises OR the rehabbed listing for 80k down the street...close, place and automate...done!

Filling the spot we left should be as simple as handing the new person the guide we have wrote and over seeing.Our numbers are fantastic when it comes to cash flow / ROI ( not a surprise when you buy cash and do all the work yourself)Now the issue, Buying these houses all cash, I have not forced my self to understand leverage, financing, and all aspects of raising capital creatively.

At least it doesn't snow (much) in Atlanta :)I am surprised they can't do anything to fix it.  

@Paula Smith I'm not surprised that you are getting conflicting legal ideas.
