I’m feeling nearly inundated with information streams, which isn’t a bad thing.

The last thing you want to do is get under contract with a bank owned house, then waste two weeks trying to find a contractor and then end up with a bad one that's hard to work with. 

We have not opened any new credit cards at this point so since the bad credit we’ve never started building good credit.

Qwee ParkerMy name is Kantrell I live in Saint Paul and I am a first time homebuyer as well and I’m looking to get my real estate career started as well.

It requires a high degree of specialized knowledge to accurately estimate value and repairs, and if you get any of it wrong you will instantly get a bad name with the flippers you're trying to wholesale to.

@Nathan G. thanks. last night we deep cleaned the apt and management stated they would be coming to day for a initial inspection and first spray, if they find anything bad they'll be back.

Many of these areas change dramatically block by block so its hard to assume every street in a certain neighborhood if bad.  

Her honest 15-20 a year sounds bad next to the agent claiming 5 a month, but most of the time her honest 15-20 a year is real and that 5 a month is more like 5 a year.IRL if an agent sells 10+ homes a month, and isn't a builder's in-house agent, you will know because they will be one of the "Big Names" in the market.
