The deal is part of the retailer's plan to restructure and focus on profitability by 2025.

If you plan on purchasing the following year, show your tax returns to your lender before filling.Your statement brought up another great point- properly documenting improvements separate from repairs and maintenance. 

For my first investment, I was thinking I could use my dad’s land that he owns with 3 septic tanks and 2 wells.

Well next time have your GC walk it.

Have you heard that as well?

We've been investing in Kansas City for 12 years now and done quite well.

Don well said!

Also in your area that is a little rural if its well and septic makes sure those are checked by professionalsif it has city sewer make sure you do a sewer scope on the line running to the street.. and of course make sure roof is good etc etc.and for sure you can offer what you want to pay.. they may not accept it but its up to you.also ask title company to give you current owner.. and if you want simply make a back up offer in cases the wholesaler cant close this happens a lot and you get a better deal. 

I would definitely consult/call the property tax assessor's office in whichever county you plan to reside in to be 100% certain as they will be able to tell you. 

The plan is to move into the new home, live in it for 2 years, and then repeat the process of purchasing additional properties.Additionally, while we continue to build equity in our current home, we plan to rent it out.
