Hi,I have always thought that the ideal "first rehab" would be one that I live in. I

Incase you're bored like I am today, you might be interested to watch a little debate/battle of the wits I'm engaging in. I

What market do you work in? I

One avenue Im interested in is bank reos.

I have to tell you I have the best wife in the world and if she was not interested in the business and I was in the situation that some of you are in I would start giving her the time right now.

Thanks everyone.On the pet deposit these buildings are older from the 80's and the tenants have been there awhile and the carpets have reached the end point.So I would rather have the upfront pet fee than a deposit.When these tenants move out the carpet will be replaced because of age anyways.If it was brand new carpet just put in I might feel different.Thanks for the other ideas with the car.Since I took this over some tenants are saying they don't have the money etc.

What area are you looking for vacant homes in? I

Partners can be great but don't wait to find the perfect person, just go for it, but research carefully before jumping in. I

What state are you purchasing in? I

This particular neighbor bought the house in about 2006 or so, so for the 3 years prior to her moving in *I* took care of the space between the houses because 1) it didn't take that long and 2) that's just what you *do*.
