/mth =477.00Taxes & Assessment Reserves 4 mths @$208.33/mth =833.32I am lost so much money for a 69,000 loan is hard to understand for a first timer.Thanks

I just go to the local IRS office, get a bunch of blank 1099 forms, and write them out by hand (I don't do enough to make it worthwhile to buy the Quickbooks compatible forms, plus I think they require a special type of printer).It's just in the future, the number of 1099 and W-9 forms that I will have is going to increase a bit.

The property was assessed at 391k, I pay 165k before back taxes and it needs work for another 120K and from what i heard the taxes exceed another 90-100k so really there is no way that deal will work.

I still use it and many other methods (references, word of mouth, Chamber of Commerce, etc) as a tool to assess potential business.

So "the something else in mind" is probably an accurate assessment.

I'm looking for ideas or investing avenues ss flippers are moving into. our business is set up to service short sale negotiations but we'd like to get back into investing our money and not our time sitting on the phone with the banks.Just looking for ideas from any of you who have seen this trend or disagree with my assessment.

After all, being there on site will keep many risks down in the first place, like parties, drunken visitors, etc. that you have little control over when you are off site.You need to assess the risks involved in ownership before you assume that any rental must be held in an LLC.

This assessment will place the market demand and address the "trendy" issues before you ever get to the subject property.

Hey Ben, Did you ever find a click to mail compatible list?

I also don't like assessed values.
