My awesome hard money rental property empire.Ok, first things first, I have nearly no savings, no verifiable income, but lots of heart :mrgreen: My idea is that I would find a property, oh let's say it is asking for $40,000 and to move a tenant in requires $15,000.

I see a promising property in Skaneatles NY - just outside the village zone so not subject to STR regulations - and with possible subdivision opportunityAny thoughts around investing in SK from a STR POV esp a property that is NEITHER lake front / facing NOR in the heart of the village ?

I’m in Colorado now but my hearts in Alaska.

It's not a market for the faint of heart when you add in flood insurance to the mix.

Let everyone take this away in their minds and hearts today.

You've received no solid confirmation that your tenant is in a coma.I don't think you're heartless; quite frankly, in my experience, having a heart gets you taken advantage of.  

It breaks my heart because they wouldn't be out there if they weren't successfully conning people out of their money for useless courses.

The problem is you have a kind heart.

Contacting Craigslist Sellers for Purchase:Just like banks prefer lending over owning real estate, some property owners who list their homes for rent may have a change of heart when presented with the opportunity to sell.

Also it’s reasonable to think that the listing agent will have sellers best interest at heart so they’ll most likely negotiate most of your requests
