But that would require you to, you know, lose money somehow.These lines are gray.

Then one of those gray things..

Wholesaling is considered a gray area judged on intent, long story short Some brokers & lawyers are for it with the proper disclosures and while other brokers are against it no matter what.In any case, I'd suggest you join a local investment group of some type and ask around for agent recommendations or hopefully there's a PA agent here on BP that'll answer this for you.   2.

He has lots of gray hair (experienced), professional (letterhead stationary) and all business.

@Austin Faux,Sounds interesting (I'd be sure to check the liens, back taxes, and deferred maintenance).Also, you should reach out to @Paul Thompson, @Eric Metz, @Thomas Chapin, and @LaTashia Rose since they are active north LR.Best of luck to you!

Also, it's a little gray ethically, because agents aren't supposed to be paid for real estate related services except by their broker.If you want a bird dog, try talking to a wholesaler ... ask them to send deals your way that they don't want, or ask them if they know someone.  

@Anthony Thompson @Andrew BrockwayThanks for the input and how do you estimate repairs?  

If so, perhaps sitting on a serviced lot and working on your neighbours may be a better long term strategy.I too want to build - in my case a Passivhaus set of {stacked} townhouses and a 20 - 30 unit Passivhaus apartment complex - but now is not the time here in NB.Is the old doctor's house over on Gray still for sale or the 4-unit on King (close to your work)?

@David Thompson That's smart thinking with the 2bdr vs. studio/1bdr.

@Annie Thompson  I think one of the main functions of the site is to compare actual product side by side and compare cities and see what kinds of returns.. are out their from the providers that post their inventory  its real inventory that can be bought and you don't need to go to a squeeze page to get the super secret inventory lists LOL..I would not base a buy decision solely on  online reviews..
