Told him to stay a bit longer, put some more money away, because you probably won't have another chance in life to live almost for free, at $100/month room and board.Several years went by, my dad called, asked whether my brother should pay $90K down or pay $180K all cash for a townhouse.

I was wondering if anyone could help me estimate the cost of property taxes and insurance after I remove the pool. 

Investors had to Chance $1,000 into an unknown company, that wasn't making a profit in 2012 (Facebook) to wind up with only $4,300 . . . 6 years later????

We met a lady at one of the houses we were looking at, and she was so grateful that the current landlord/seller for giving her a chance b/c she used to be homeless and is now working at becoming a teacher, she actually got a loan and paid for a new roof, and to have the bathroom floor fixed-- both stuff completely shocked me!!! 

@Jordan l@Jordan Leithart If you're going to invest out of state, my advice is not to choose a market based on the fact that you spend a lot of time visiting family there but base it instead on whether the market fits your criteria and offers the best chance of achieving your overall financial objectives.

If the borrower is under water on the loan, then there may be a chance you can get a SS done but will need to convince the owner to work with you on this.  

If I can make more by selling it right now, then that's what I'd do- chances are you could take your potential net profit of $42k and get some better leverage on a different property.

After doing the necessary homework, I got home and decided to send her an offer before she had the chance to actually list it.

@Michelle Lutz would like to have chance connecting with you for the investment in KCMO, thanks

Is there a chance the medical provider over-charged or forgot to send it to the insurer?
