BP FriendsWe have closed on our first investment property in Baltimore and can't wait to get started. 2 bedroom 2 bath ((we are adding a bathroom) 1200sqft. 30k cash purchase with a combo of line of credit and private financing.

I want to renovate the house then sell it. i also don't want to wait to homestead the house til jan 1st b/c then i have to wait for closing on the HELOC of about 45 days and another month for renovations.

Anything that can set yourself apart from the thousands of other listings I think could definitely work and help out travelers in need at the same time.  

if you REALLY think you are competing against yourself and if you put in your offer with the listing agent, which I HIGHLY recommended for many reasons, I would tell the agent never mind on that offer, but I do want to put in an offer listed by another agent can I do that now or do I need to wait until my offer expires?

Fair Housing fines can run into tens of thousands of dollars, and the burden of proof is much less.

Thank you antonie I am going to wait  a little longer The apartment is only in the market for 10 days 

The last tenant lived in this property 6 years and end up I need to spend ten thousand to repair everything. 

He sees the market going up, and that it’s a sellers market, and says I should wait for the next crash to happen before I jump in.

I would think you would just need walls in but you need to see what is covered under the Master Thanks Melvin, That's what we are waiting to establish from the HOA, Fingers crossed...

I am also waiting for the appraisal report and value this week.
