It is more economical to do it all at once.Winterizing often leaves you with some cracked fittings or faucets in the basement, which are easy to replace, but the main goal is to preserve the water heater, toilets and the in wall plumbing from frost damage.

If you're 23 and fit, and feel like doing it, it's a decent skill to learn, but it's pretty hard on your back.

Does anybody know of any companies that will go do walk throughs of a property for you?

@Zane Gifford No, it would have needed major renovation so we decided to pass because it didn't fit our plan.

San Antonio has three universities (Trinity, Incarnate Word, SAC) within walking distance of each other and the downtown area.

@Eric Waterman Yea think it's best to walk away.

The letter should introduce yourself as an investor, saying that you are currently actively buying in the area and that you thought their building can be a good fit to your portfolio provided it meets your criteria. 

I am hesitant to even consider a sale, as Google has just bought up a big chunk of land not ten minutes walking from the property and plans to build a campus, shopping, restaurants, etc.

Fifth third and huntington have given me 30 year fixed conventional loans on several properties.It must however fit the criteria:25% downFour units or lessCredit and income worthyProperty must appraise

DR and Lennar basically will only buy ready to build lots.. so I have a few larger projects in the works.. 92 lots and 164 lots.. that they swear ( pinky Swear) they will buy from me when I get them shovel ready.. 7 to 10 million dollar risk and they could say no if they don't like what the market is doing.. the 92 I am going to do if they don't buy it I will build it.. the 164 I have to flip or I will not exercise my option at walk away from about 250k in cash I Have in it presently.. but that's the land game .. big risk big reward.. if the 164 goes right I will make about 4 million on  the same 250k invested.. roll the dice right ???
