They maintained it very well, replaced appliances at their expense & had their maintenance guys restore/rebuild the old wood enclosed porch.After another 6 years they moved their Mfg out of the area (to China) & the last guy left all the appliances, furniture, Bose sound system & TV's.We then sold it lease-to-own, took it back after 7 years of pmts & have it rented again!!!

He lives in Harper woods MI... 20 mins from Detroit..

So much of that depends on your market, you could buy them all day long at 65-70% in MLS here before the hedge funds came into town about a year and a half ago and started buying everything in sight.

Thanks Vana, I will like to meet with you since you are in my neck of the woods.

Provided there's enough thickness left in the wood, coarse sand paper and plenty of it.

I'm in your neck of the woods, too.Michelle

If it isn't safe for you to drive through it, that's fine as long as you are prepared to deal with such (that dangerous of an area is a special niche that you need to have more knowledge of how to properly handle), and the list goes on.Yes, the internet makes it very easy to buy a property sight unseen and you can certainly do that, but don't do it without due diligence.

painted wood?

Why max out a HELOC to pay for a property all-cash, when you could work hard, save up a downpayment, and then finance a property through memphisinvest.com (as an example), which offers turnkey cash-flow properties that you can comfortably and reliable acquire sight unseen?

I was going to buy several properties sight unseen but my boyfriend made me fly out to Chicago for a visit before finalizing the deals.
