This dirt compacted very hard under minimal water sprinkling and had standing water for 5+ hours in full sun 85 degree weather (beneath the standing water, the dirt was relatively dry - so it was holding water, not draining at all).  

just math with a sprinkling of common sense.. 

craigslist is filled with tons of agent ads, overpriced owner properties and aspiring wholesalers trying to get you on their buyers list .It is also sprinkled with some overseas scams and an occasional deal might be found.

It went from a little sprinkle to a down pour of rain , resulting in a nice interaction with a homeowner. 

You are being kind to someone you know and losing out on $800 / month income, give yourself some ice cream with sprinkles you deserve it.

Furthermore, four units might kick you into sprinkling the apartment (which is what the IRC would consider it to be).

Both good advice and bad advice are buried in the remaining 80% of the overall word count, which consists of outright fiction liberally sprinkled with self-promotion.So, yeah, there is some good stuff in there.  

You think some guys on this site frown on wholesalers working on the fringes of legality.. well builders did not like this at all.Plus if you sell to a bunch of investors in a SFR tract you are absolluly correct it will have a negative impact on values.I bought 12 new homes for go zone in MS but  the builder would only allow 5% of any one track to go non owner occ.. so this has worked well.. the few I have are sprinkled about in these tracks. 

I am looking to buy, flip, and sell and eventually sprinkle in some buy, flip and hold when the cash reserves are healthy. 

While in all fairness, Kelly Drive actually has some pockets that are not really god-awful, just the name “Kelly Drive” sends semi-informed out of town investors running for the nearest boutique coffee shop to calm down and gather their courage over a white chocolate sprinkled Frappuccino.
