However in this market an MLS listing looking for a POF letter is a bank unloading an unfinanceable junker 95% of the time, and 99% of the rest are short sales.

BP Nation:Am in need of a quick read on this unusual situation with a distressed investor/seller unloading several properties.

I've mainly been looking through Lumber Liquidators and BuildDirect and have found a lot of options in the $2.50 to $3.00 price range.

I hope his bonus this year isn't a house in Detroit that Josh is trying to unload.

Not storing boxes, files, and personal personal stuff, but power tools, hurricane panels for the duplex, extra lumber, lawn mower, ladders etc...are those "personal" items or items that helps maintain the property and thus not personal?

The bum wouldn't go get them so I had a guy drop a bunch off and we helped him they were 8ft long pallets so it didn't take many. we used scrap pieces of lumber and screws to connect the pallets and any odd length cut with a chainsaw it don't have to be pretty its on his side.Sometimes you can find longer pallets and around here usually they are freeIf you look around for them.

He currently has a family friend staying in the property until he can unload it.

You may even find a frustrated landlord willing to unload a property cheaply.

I bought several of these back a few years ago when I first got started and was excited to "own" some properties.It didn't take me too long to see that I had [knowingly] over paid and bought in neighborhoods that I probably shouldn't have just to get some deals.It took me a while to unload these properties and realize my mistakes.

Hello fellow rehabbers,So we have been able to save a good amount of money on materials going through the bid room at Lowes and Home Depot, and on Lumber through our local lumber yard, but sometimes they do not have a ton of options for finish materials.
