Told me because there was a little laundry in the bathroom the place was trashed.

They are pretty much identical but this house has a small addition on the back that enlarged the bathroom.

I'm thinking of getting an inspection, then if everything structurally is ok with the house, making an offer of $140k and attach a $30k earnest check to let them know I'm serious.

Hello,I am wondering, is there any way to structure a deal on a SFH where you the investor tie it up with a subject to contract, then try to contact the lender for a short sale, and are able to give the seller some of the equity that was already there before you came into the deal?

Right now I'm living in a rehab-in-progress (A gem of a place near Lawrenceville that looks like a pepto-bismol salesman painted it and had two bathrooms upstairs that resembled ol' faithful when you turned the faucets on).All that really means is that my wife and I are knee-deep in sheetrock, power tools, and have a backyard full of busted bathroom covered by a tarp.

It all starts with marketing… once you have some marketing in place and find a potential deal, then you need to know things like: how to analyze a deal, structure the deal, fund the deal, etc etc.

I wouldn't buy a place that needed a gut renovation and structural work in a market that is going down.

The seller only wants 10grand for moving expenses, so what shall I do, should I send the seller a contract for 60% of ARV, because the end buyer has already agreed to buy it at 80% ARV, so how do I structure this deal, so I can make a profit?

Also, they are not real good in high traffic areas (entry way) or where they will get wet often (bath room)... again problems with sticking well.
