got calls from neighbors about parties, kids peeing outside, cops were called...neighbors finally had enough and broke into the house, stealing the tenant's ipod, computer, and car...when i asked her to leave, she had no problems, knowing she trashed the place...however...daddy soon called demanding the deposit back...i don't think he knew what a partygirl his daughter was...the kicker was the next week she moved into an apartment complex and was kicked out for parties as well...long story short..apologized to neighbors and assured them i cared about their community..have a nice family in there now..it's nice driving by to check in and seeing them outside planting flowers or doing something good for the neighborhood!!

MacBooks - 3 ea... iMac - 1 ea... iPhones - 5 ea... iPods - 4ea.Yeah...

@Will Barnard love this answer / I was going to say the same thing - deal seemed too skinny

The Skinny: Appraisers do not dictate prices, they react to changes in prices. 

Have you considered buying a skinny jeans factory?

@Dave Foster can give you the skinny.

The cash flow is a little skinny.......I bought this house with mother in Law for $125k  my payment are $850....hardly any work needed just basic paint and carpet I did add laminate flooring and a new water heater  ....bought it as an owner occupied  after I moved my payment were 850 piti the main house rents for $1375 the mother in law rents for $750...total of $2125 - today it apprised at 265k  got in with 5k and change seller paid a good chunk of closing cost  I manage it myself and payments are made direct deposit every month ....so overhead is very low .....cash-cow for a house with mother in law

Here is the skinny: - I have one rental property (VA loan)- took out a Heloc to buy my second property - I live in the second property (VA loan also)- I’ve used up my VA loan limit - I have $50k saved for a down payment - I live in Las Vegas and don’t mind investing out of state - Best advice for third property?

The stuff I see from most wholesalers would have skinny margins and would be a massive gut renovation.

Anyone can go to the App Store on their phone, scan their finger (or face on the newer iPhones), (or manually enter the password you created when you were 15 and made an Apple ID on your iPod Touch) and download Redfin or Zillow.
