ARV on this property could be from $150-180,000 but the price per sq ft varies wildly in this zip code and neighborhood.  

We thought the previous occupants were raising fighting dogs but a neighbor later told us that a "crazy" lady lived there and took in all the neighborhood strays.

I can tell you that the sales lady isn't looking out for you.  

Also today I visited a real estate agent who was a young lady about my age, she didn't really seem like she knew what she was talking about when it came to FHA loans and their policy, but I'll go ahead and ask you anyway.

Well I lied, one lady was very interested..after I had tenants in the property for 2 months lol.

Add to that the taxes in the cape have gone wild and they are soaking landlords.

I intend to reach out to local contractors to come to our REIA to network and see how valuable it will be not only to the investors in attendance but how much business they will receive if they can do good work and the word spreads like wild fire.By the way your hyperlink is a fairly interesting and intelligent tool.  

Believe me I pay my fair share, my title lady loves me, but I've also had deals where the sellers or end buyers paid all closing fees.  

for sure Jobs are the wild card. you add high unemployment then yes you will have more opportunites.

I already found errors in this CPAs initia work in my returns that wild have cost me 5k in returns had I not carefully reviewed the return, so needless to say I'm a bit skeptical of the quality of his work.Also, rather than asking me what the property addresses were for each one, he put in random addresses, some in other states.
