If we can safely rent our current home, and get the equity from it to launch into more real-estate deals, that is our first hope.Thank you so much in advance for any help.Melyn

There was a BP podcast where one technique was for the investor to get bids before purchase and then add those as line items to the HUD and get checks to the contractor issued at settlement (with the investor holding them until project starts or designated draw schedule).

While it may be perfectly safe and appropriate in this case, there's generally no reason to use a Quit Claim deed over a Warranty Deed.

It is in driving distance to major attractions in Florida (2 hours to Miami and 2 hours to Orlando), and is a safe city with housing that is still affordable.

Overall I would suggest driving some of the areas and look for obvious giveaways for good/safe communities.

If you can keep labor prices down, I’d say it’s a pretty safe bet— given the right area.

This time from someone who understood that we simply wanted to do the minimum to get this thing stabilized and safe.

Or spreading lies to get your money.My posts are 100% logic, facts no fluff.I talk to hundreds of investors every week that come to me for help with marketing, and it is very safe to say that more than 90% of them are unsuccessful with DMM, including sending multiple letters to recipients.I am sorry mate but the "I have been doing this for 300 years", doesn't hold any water with me.

I have some investors that are buying in blocks in some Columbus sub-markets rather than focusing on one large deal. 30k is your safe spot if you are wanting to use hard money.

While these items don't necessarily add value to a home, they were needed to ensure a safe & sound property for future guests.
