With so many knowledgeable real estate professionals here, I feel this is a good place to solicit feedback on this important discussion.As a private money lender, we are always looking for trends in real estate so we can gear up our money sources to lend on new property types or project types.

Look for a source for the posting on the post, Vacant was the clue to most, a neighbor reporting the second source for most cases of ID of a rental.

Another idea is to fund the rehab from some other source.

I am proudest of that one because a fellow real estate broker who was always telling me he was the best ever was looking at it and I was along for the ride and he said anyone who buys this must be the worlds biggest idiot, I am definitely going to turn down the listing and see who is dumb enough to take it, well I didn't list it I bought it instead, dumb me.

Brian Hudson, I think your biggest mistake here was not using a solid property manager in the 1st place.

I have used the exact same scanned check for many offers ...You will be giving them the routing and account numbers with that check, so whether the payee line is blank or not isn't the biggest risk IMO.

Biggest things I see to improve are Paint, drywall repair, replace the acoustical tile ceiling with drywall, flooring, Counter tops, shower surround.

Background check them on BBB and other review sources. 3.
