Does anyone know how to effectively use this amazing medium for finding leads for both motivated sellers, and the buyers I'll need to finish the deals?

Hi BP,Excited to finally be signed up for BP Pro, finishing up 'The Book on Flipping Houses' and have been on the hunt for a couple months now for a great first opportunity!

I looked up their website and it's a super basic godaddy site.

I'm about 95% complete, as I still have to install my flooring in the finished basement as well as the drop ceiling.

This is a little off-topic but since both @Bob Malecki and @Dave Van Horn were already in here, are websites like The Paper Source University legitimate?

Check the city website https://beta.phila.gov/search for the property, and look up the license and permit.

Is there any benefit to the author (or me) if I purchase through your web site?

You can look at the county auditors website to find out the amount for property taxes.

Probably the biggest thing was that I partnered with a contractor who had a different vision for the property than I did.It was an old duplex that he envisioned as being sold only to an investor and he wanted to finish it with low-mid grade finishes (formica, wall-wall carpet, clean up the old gas stoves, etc). 

I recently finished "Set for Life" and in it the author suggests keeping your investment savings (not your emergency savings) in the stock market so you can ride the general upward slope of the economy before you utilize it.
