I'm having all my inspections done this Friday so I will see what those uncover.

You might also be able to uncover some "motivating" factors at the courthouse.

JScott,I have always been willing to share what I know; evidence is here on BP already :wink:And I agree that all of the so-called "secrets" have already been uncovered - again, evidence of that is here on BP.What I am getting at, is that these REIA meetings are full of newcomers who aren't all that willing to uncover those pieces of info on their own.

In my most recent potential deals I have uncovered what seems to be the basis of good seller motivation, ie.. family financial crisis requiring a quick cash sale of property, but I have been unable to convert that motivation into a signed contract.

When did you uncover the 2nd loan?

What could they possibly have that the folks here can't uncover?

Get three estimates from reputable licensed and bonded contractors and have them include a built-in cushion in case they uncover more issues. 2.

Thanks for asking this question Dan - I too am looking for suggestions for our first rehab project.We uncovered beautiful hardwoods in the 3 bedrooms and living room - Plan to get them cleaned up and refinish them (Mr Sandless was the best price).

You're right, I'd be doing all the work unless I uncover something over my head.

Good thing that I did, because there were quite a few delinquent bills that would have been stuck to me had they not been uncovered by my title company and placed on the HUD1.
