Second appraisal came in as a c4 and at 240k value (woohoo 15k equity gain).After two extensions, a litany of repairs, issues with the four point and appraisal, I finally closed on the home 3/29/24.I put 5% down, expecting to get an additional 2.5% back from my realtors commission.

They can be sold at a discount so the higher ones might get close to their, lower ones won't.

Everything else is paid at closing. 

I feel like I’m in the perfect position to start investing my money into real estate instead of stocks because it seems like the ROI with stocks is lower than with real estate.I’m close with my brothers and we’re all working and still living with our parents, so we don’t have much expenses.

Close to schools and restaurants. 

Account Closed Timothy, it sounds like you have some great ambition, partnered perfectly with some healthy skepticism.

It's old, has an old roof, and close to the ocean.

We work closely with Holt Homes across OR/WA and new home sales are spiking big-time.

Anything say close to 300k and up is moving at 2009 levels with maybe 20% selling and the rest stagnating.

If the property is listed on Airbnb/VRBO it will be hard to transfer reservations and that could be a huge pain if the seller is not helpful, even after closing.
