Unfortunately, I have not been able to pick myself back up financially since I moved from Pennsylvania. 

It turn out that the sheriff has lost the foreclosure deed and they have to recreate a new one. 

Also like your deal, four years after we purchased it, we were approached by a representative of a developer (for Walgreens) who eventually purchased our property for a profit a little more than your deal.I haven't been able to start buying lots (in future prime locations) yet for my personal investment, but I hope to pick up a couple this year. 

I'm pretty serious about investing and especially fix and flips, so hopefully I can pick everybody's brain to make as few mistakes as possible.

Military (3 major bases there) survived well during the last base consolidation actually picking up jobs from other regions. 

I spent 50k on my first house (rehab budget) and went over by alot, but I got the education on how to pick apart a house.  

A 3 hour install took all day because nothing was picked up.

There is plenty here to find out what has changed since Brandon wrote his book and, I'm sure he'll admit he's not a finance type, especially with tenant buyers.He's going down predatory lane using L/Os as a weeding out, in OK, they do have orange jumps suits at that big hotel along the Will Rogers Turnpike, you know, the one with the big fence around it and signs saying do not pick up hitchhikers! 

You could gain some significant experience by  picking up a mentor/partner.

Hi Brian if you're ever in the Madison area I'd love to buy you a beer and pick your brain about the tax implications of farming.
