I have noticed quite a few posters lately that are requesting help, opinions, prices and information on their properties where a good answer would require either the square footage, the location or both....and they provide neither.

Both turnkey properties and properties requiring minor rehab can be viable options.

I’m hearing they require higher down payments though.
