They are a national company so if anyone has one in your area definitely go talk to them and give them a shot!

For example, you might put together a packet of information for the appraiser that includes comps for the house, and detailed info on the competing trailer parks you mentioned - highlighting the fact that the other trailers are in much worse condition that yours, how much they rent for compared to yours, etc.

@Kelly G. each state has thier own WC laws, so you will get well meaning misinformation on these national websites.In WI, an employer does not need to carry work comp, but is liable for injuries to employees, sub contractors and volunteers.  

@Jason VanterpoolJason,You're going to have to wait the prescribed seasoning period if you want to use conventional financing. and the few national lenders that do portfolio loans require seasoning as well.

Some personal thoughts and opinions about property values I have as an Investor and Realtor I thought I could share.Home prices will continue to rise nationally and Milwaukee, Wisconsin will be no exception as far as I am concerned.

Hi Pace:I'm a HomeVestors franchisee in Greensboro, NC and right now we get a little better than the national averages you mentioned.I used to use those lists you mention and I believe you'll find those to be competition deals.
