I am not selling with an agent, but I would not mind if a buyers agent came and brought a buyer, I would pay the normal 3% to them for that.My main question meant everything besides commission.

The most pressing include a leaking main water pipe in the crawlspace, several dead outlets, non-grounded outlets and non covered outlets, a loose shower liner/insert that has caused mold and moisture damage on the bathroom sheetrock (there is no vent/fan in there), and the carport and porch roof are leaking.

Mainly interested in Wholesale first to get started but am interested in commercial, lease options, and when I grow up :shock: Land Development sounds really fun!

My main concerns about not being able to buy a house are: I dont have the cash for a significant down payment, so I would be using the 100% financing option.

Mainly at whole sale.

You can write to the three main credit bureaus requesting that you want fraud protection alerts on your file.

So I would like to start making offers on mainly REO's by going through the listing agent.I looked at Stephs' article about finding the contact name and number of the listing agent of the property.But what's the process?????

I have quad 4 unit buildings that are town homes.What I have found is it is much better to put all tile on the main floor instead of carpet or vinyl.Upstairs with the carpet it doesn't get worn down as much as the main level.When you evict a tenant with tile it is mop and go and not fixing tears in vinyl or carpet that can't be salvaged.The dirty carpets tend to attract bug problems as well.You can find tile cheap and buy a big area rug to warm it up for cheap.The key with tile is the contractors can kill you on the install fee.You have to find a contractor hungry for money.I can get tile 12 X 12 for 56 cents a sq ft.Main level I would spend about 229.60 in tiles,another 150.00 in mix for bonding and grout for finish and just put back old finish trim down and repaint.Can get a hungry contractor for 75.00 a day to tile day one and finish grout 75.00 day two.Total cost 529.60 for main level.I have 1,178 sq ft with 2 story but I leave carpet upstairs and on the stairs and tile the main.Don't pay high prices.Be patient and turn over rocks to find the great deals.

I can understand that some may say to hire someone with workmans comp only, but when hiring a handyman, landscaper, with a $50-$500 job it's just not realistic to expect them to have it.
