If you feel good about your profit after that and pull the trigger. 

And I have a 20% chance of buying in Los Angeles/Orange county and 20% chance I'd buy in West Palm Beach/ Lakeworth (I really love the area)Timeline:  I have 45 days starting Thursday and another 6 months to close on the upleg starting thurs :)  I'm actually in escrow on a Ft Lauderdale property now and probably going to cancel it because of building issues.I rush into everything then when I have looked at a few dozen maybe walked a hundred I pull trigger.

At the very least it'll be an excuse to head back down for a bit to meet contractors/agents/PMs (I always rec making the trip to meet and greet before pulling the trigger) ;)Best of luck!

@Adam Mittermeier the problem with letting the utilities go off is that they may not have been up to code for years, but they were never inspected because nothing triggered the city of utilities companies to do so.

Wanted to sell more but didn’t want to trigger the reporting but requirements. 

Too many investors get stuck in the mud and never pull the trigger.

Hi, I'm Junie Joseph and trigger shy.

You will be out the cost of the appraisal though, so it is really better to ensure you numbers make sense before you pull the trigger.

If RMD's or other income will trigger tax on other beneifts on SS. 

If you'll be financing the property, it looks like the Feds will be raising rates once more before the year is out, so it might not be a bad idea to pull the trigger sooner rather than later.
