the nerve on the week of the big game!

This is the way WINNERS win the game, loosers buy at market value most of the time and proceed to loose their money.

Being an old hand at this game in Europe I have entered a world that has so many abbreviations and words that I have no idea as to what context they are meant for.

This is a resource that many people do not use because so many are getting in the game the wrong way.There are many ideas out there that can benefit you, but think of it this way, they start at 8 or 9 and they drive neighborhoods and find those houses that you can not or that you have overlooked.

The latter is the group that gets how this game works.

Sorry to be late to the game, but some thoughts...Check what homes nearby have recently sold for. www.realtor.com is a good free resource or google the assessor's office of the city the property in question is in.By all means, do a walk through of the property if you haven't already.

We are both new to the game, and when I say new I mean really have only limited knowledge.

i dont know...i do know at $300 it still makes damn good cash flow...the property is still marked active and not UA yet...but i have a hunch its going to be foreclosed onim also not worried about having an empty apartment, thats part of the game...in my market i can fill these 3 or 4 bedrooms in this neighborhood very fast even in the winter, they are way above average units...if i can get it at $300K- great if not o well...im not planning on getting this one, bc there is another (supposedly) offer that is higher...there is a chance the realtor was pulling one on me, but from the start i said i'd go to $300K, therefore i started at $270K
