I have really had to dig for any info on his company and finally found reviews from people encountering similar problems as well as hunting people down for unpaid money.

For example, I can pick up a house for 17K that is very close to a couple of rehabs that sold for about $100K.Regarding the low-mid areas that you'll encounter out there, I do own a bunch of properties in these types of areas, and I have a PM to manage them.

However, in case we run into the unthinkable and encounter mold, friable asbestos, or foundation issues, I don't have good contractors for that yet.

Hi, I’m starting to really look into buying foreclosures in my area in GA but I’m trying to run possible scenarios through my head on things that I might encounter.

You'll need at least 20% down, and you'll probably encounter a balloon (usually 3 or 5 years).

Many locations in south NJ are good for this model however be sure you understand the market, sub market and the type of tenants you will encounter.

Or have any of you encountered this?

It's now engulfed by sticker bushes.

I'm in NYC and once encountered a similar problem, a construction project, but involving dumpsters, overflowing, garbage getting onto the streets.

Everyone I know that has, or should I say had, them hated the things after a while because of issues they encountered.
