@Caleb Heimsoth I guess its just @Bruce Peterson that's not workingI have considered opening my own business but I feel I would be in over my head as I don't know much about business in general.Appreciate your insight on my goals, I will look into capital raising techniques.

I hit my head against the wall a lot of times pursuing techniques people told me to do.

The violations are:1) 2004, $3,000 Code 157017 - Repair or replace defective soil pipe. 

Also, any time you accept something like that from the tenant, be prepared for them to later use that as an attempt to leverage something from you (e.g. bizarre repairs, upgraded appliances, bringing in unauthorized pets, etc. - The list goes on forever and ever). 

My husband was not great at keeping ahead on the bills .So the house we are in we have a contract to close on before April 30 th or we lose 27,000.00 down and our home and will have to move my husband has a 6 figure income but I have been trying to repair our credit.its now  at 650 and hoping by April1st  first it would go to 700 then we are safe.But I took out an unsecured loan to pay an Irs tax lien and it was better than all the penalties an interest from the IRS.

Hello everyone,I would like to know if there are any tricks to the trade on how you estimate your repair costs on a house before you submit an offer?

Or, you can try your hand at some techniques.

Most of our properties sell at 70%-75% of market value after repairs.

Glass block windows are good.Looks like there is central air.Someone may have to deal with sidewalk out front. concrete is missing in front of the treeDriveway needs a look, looks like the asphalt need repaired/replaced.Roof needs a closer look.

My last offer for $85k was rejected, the property is in a generally good state, might need a new roof in a few years with approximately $5k in immediate repairs.
