If it is across the street from an assisted living, I would not be surprised if it wasn't in a more commercial zoned area such as office/service or something similar.

Have a larger downpayment will make you a more attractive bet. 

How common is it to get a property under contract and then drastically change the purchase price based on a more thorough analysis of the rehab costs during the due diligence period?

I would keep track and carry over my losses to a more favorable year that can offset a gain you have.  

I understand where you are coming from, in that from a moral standpoint it might feel awkward to be the beneficiary of someone else's misfortune, especially if you bought the house for cheap from the bank.

My thinking behind this is the PM would give me a more stable base income with which to budget my bills and living expenses on, while sales income would be more of a bonus to go towards other things like fixing my credit and saving for my own investment properties.

The market may be poised to take a more offensive approach in 2016 as the economy strengthens and real estate fundamentals improve."

Hi Guys,Almost the end of my first year wholesaling in Jacksonville, FL, so I'm looking ahead for a CPA who's not only investor friendly, but also "International Investor Friendly".I'd prefer recommendations from members on BP, over a "Google Search and call" scenario, as in my own experience, word of mouth usually targets a more suitable person or company.So fire away please - I'd be very pleased to hear from anyone if you know of a reputable, reliable, CPA in the Jax area!
