I missed out a few things I could have bought last year that have gone up since, I'm sure that's fueling me here to pull the trigger. 

I plan on driving the neighborhood but does anyone have any alternative ways to find out what kinds of properties are in a certain neighborhood?

@Tiffany Archer - there are plenty of bank alternative lenders that can provide permanent financing for your deal. 

You might want to do a bit more research on alternative fillers.

Alternatively, "Seller shall contribute up to $100 to remediate mold." 

There are alternatives to consider as their are several turnkey operations in Memphis.

Alternatively, some places are constantly jacking HOA fees because a few people who get control of the HOA want to live in the Taj Mahal. 

I am not sure I can find a better alternative investment if I don't ? 

Also as a high income earner, you are likely going to be able to get into crowdfunding and many other alternative investment vehicles. 

I’m not your average realistic company so our ways of funding are a lot different and more of series of funding rather than deal by deal real estate capital with different capital investors each time for just one property Is this an headache waiting to happen to me and it makes no sense to really continue doing substructure deals but it’s still not a bad way to start for some who don’t understand other Alternative to private lenders.
