And too skinny.

Deals are getting a bit skinny in Lansing, but not impossible to find if you are patient.

The reasons for the 5.7 sqft are so that firefighters can come IN with all their gear, not necessarily so people can get their skinny selves out by themselves. 

Here is the skinny on out of state investing. 

Mine concern with this deal is how skinny the profit margin is.  190k x .65 $123,500 should be purchase price before deducting for rehab costs. 

Your situation isn't a PM fee, but nonetheless, you may have bought the deal too skinny.

If you are in the very beginning of this, I would highly recommend hashing out the items listed above and then become OBSESSED with learning as much as you can, networking, and following your curiosity to something that has a lot of interest.It looks like you may have interest in flipping, so if you have anyone in your network that does real estate and may have the skinny on certain areas, it may be worth it to focus on that area as you begin gaining experience.
