Further in Brooklyn will be excellent too.

I have dealt exclusively in manufactured/mobile/trailer housing mostly due to what I consider to be excellent cash flow and low pricing which makes it easy for a guy like me to get into.

Hey Joey, I know of an excellent contractor who has helped me several times with roofing, siding, flooring, Windows, etc...

The other groups mentioned are certainly excellent places to start, Investor Underground in particular.

Excellent!

Excellent results Todd, getting a payoff on a discounted note is a wonderful thing!

That's not at all the kind of agent I am and I have to make the margins I need to reinvest in my business and provide excellent service.This post is really more about what makes a good Investor-Friendly Agent so keep it coming. 

It has been an excellent learning experience but this was probably the worst case scenario for a remodel i've ever dealt with. lol  Thank you for your response!

If you have $5000 debt at 15%, paying it off will have the same net effect on your bottom line as finding a $5k investment at 15% (which, if guaranteed, would be an excellent investment for anyone.)On the other hand, you can pay your monthly minimums temporarily and get your next house sooner, get more investment income and equity coming in, and THEN pay off your cards with that extra income.
