It will change .. just wait it out .. also have you considered partnering with a wholesaler or someone who might have a property available but not the funds to fix it up .. got to get creative sometimes .. i wish you the very best ..God Speed, Michael Short  

God bless. 

And maybe they can do it cheaper and get a better deal than if they buy it from me the new home buildernothing different than buying rentals... now if people want to take the time find their own homes do all the work and over see rehab etc.. then for sure god bless them ... and carry forth.. the reality is that most locals do it that way most out of area's hire to have it done.. really simple as that. and if they do it right they can get some equity in exchange for all the time and effort they put into it.I don't care,  what, were or how you buy you pay retail for a home  ( be it a new 450k home from me in Portland or one of my new 600k homes in Charleston) you go to sell it in a year or two you will lose money PROBABLY due to sales cost. 

Sort of like my complaint with the god awful TV shows that make it look so easy and that we are all making 100K in 5 days per home.

If you want to take thier (Fannie Mae Mtg managers) word for it and whimp out every time some jerk at Fannie Mae, opens thier mouth like some God, go right ahead, swallow it hook line and sinker!

The employee's employer would be liable if this considered an act of God.

Just make sure your deal can stand on it's own (without anticipated appreciation).As for the agent question--God bless the child that's got their own! 

Thank God I have a stellar property manager who took care of the pipe burst( just took money out of the profits) but the hail damage, insurance stuff and I have a mortgage on the property that I have to go threw as well.

Especially if, God forbid, something goes wrong at the beginning.

Oh my god.
