There is a lot of new opportunity there.

I'd say that after the job is completed, I might need to revisit the project to make additional minor repairs to the garage, and the money is intended also for electricity needed for the minor repairs, if they ever come up. 

San Antonio too, but it seems pricier.B class emerging neighborhoods are fine and value add opportunities  is what I'm looking for.Any inputs or ideas?

BP is an absolute wealth of information and learning opportunities!

@Jarrett Winston Based on what you wrote, it sounds like you got a VA loan, which is supposed to be for buyers intending to owner-occupy their properties, and used it to purchase a single family house that you intend to rent.

I have some potential short sale opportunities from my lis pendens marketing but I am not an expert on negotiating these with the banks. please pm me if u can help. thanks

For example if someone says "I am NOT a cash buyer, I am NOT preapproved, and I intend to write 100 lowball offers with no proof of funds or preapproval!"

FHA I am fairly certain cannot be used for 5+ units so I assume you are intending duplex to quad.What I find for duplex to quad is comps using the current MLS listing is useless. 

', and let them decide if that works for them.Two things... if they are looking for a 'discount' before they've even become a customer, then they are likely going to cause you some pain throughout the life of the business relationship.Also, unless you really NEED the business, it probably wouldn't be a bad thing to lose out on this opportunity.

There is a lot of opportunity.
