Direct mail and door knocking have worked very well for me.

How do I get direction?  

My initial plan was to flip it, but due to the uncertainty of the market direction at the moment, I decided to keep it as a rental and refinance it to cash out my investment cash: 70K + 5K Fixed Costs + 25K Rehab = 100K 125K x .8 = 100K the #s makes this a solid BRRR deal.

Financial info about me:I have my own home directly next to a hospital where I work in Baltimore, MD (I work as a Nurse).  

I wanted to quick ask what people have found to be the most economical solution to replacing water heaters for 1 and 2 bedroom apartments.

Hi everyone,I've recently found an abandoned property in my neighborhood where the owner has passed away. After doing further research I was able to find the attorney handling the estate and was given a payoff amount....

Don Roenker was the PE I was eventually directed to.  

A good agent knows where the deals are and has direct info from MLS rather than old data from trulia and zillow.I have the name of a great agent in KC who will find you what you want.  

@Gwen FyfeA lot of owners choose to pay the water / sewer bill directly, even if they bill their tenants for actual usage.

You already have an advantage of living in the neighborhood   You have more direct knowledge that the other investors that might be bidding against you
