@Josh Deeden I just sold my business in Orange County and moved to North Carolina 3 weeks ago.

Anything not in orange is rural, and eligible for a USDA loan.

@Judy Parker Thank you so much for taking your time and responding.I am new in this business and I get worried easily.I dont mind if she is trying to use the security deposit.I wish these tenants could think about our situation.Its very disrespectful when someone don’t respond.They wont understand what we go through until they own their house and have a tenant in their house.

The orange bafoon loves the attention, so I am sure we'll get there, but we are here and nobody can fix it.

I have a SFR in orange county and have the lot size to build another unit in the back!

Hi @Mark Poulton,My partner and I do own doors in Orange County but are looking to expand into other markets.

Does anyone have suggestion for a good commercial (retail/industrial) broker around Orange County? 

Also lenders on revenue will not have as great of rates as those lending on market value of single family.Lastly you can make numbers do what ever you want especially when you start off with omitting expenses.... comparing rent by the room and a standard single family is apples to oranges.

The road the house is on is nice, but the few streets behind are lower income with an orange crime on trulia.  

Further to @Shawn Clark's point, if you don't have easy access, one way to tell if a property has been winterized is to look at the MLS listing photos.If there are small signs or tags that are taped on sinks, toilets, dishwashers, etc, those normally are signs stating the the water is off and that the property has been winterized.Around here, they're usually neon green or orange stickers with a few that are just white slips of paper.
