Unless the true owner of the cash gives you a signed letter granting you unrestricted access to that cash, you're just making an offer based on a promise and nothing more.

Kristann - sorry to hear your experience.Without knowing the extent of the work, $1500 sounds extremely high, unless there was substantial work required to get access to the drain.

Your numbers look like you will cash flow around $500 for the 3 doors.Aurora, Illinois, I guess you could use the basement for a public access TV show..."

They will also not give you access to the MLS; they will use CL and Oodle!

i know the area im looking to invest in, its a small city, much of it being renovated and expanded, and it has a university which is also expanding. prices are decent and 2 bedroom units average $950 month. my father works closely with section 8 and i would like to have my units rented to them, as its guarenteed rent every month.let me know what you think of my plan i am looking for buildings in the 120-170k range, i want maximum cash flow, and have decided real estate is how i will invest my time and money

I currently have a property that the owner will not allow me free access to, even though it is in our contract.

There are no mistakes, but only opportunities to learn, grow and expand.

Hello Gregory, I know u want to get in the business really bad ,but one thing you never do is let anyone know how much money you have access to.

Easy access to all North/South, East/West roads.

I work probate and vacant properties but my question is, how are you gaining access to these other ones?
