Especially when Pittsburgh is home to homes that are typically built in the first half of the 19th century.

None of this is true in todays market though, you pay more per month to buy than rent anywhere in our area & frankly the country at this point, so it takes time for both having bought to be worth it and to move out and make cash flow, there are very few if any properties that are “value add anymore” I’d know because I look At 17 counties daily for deals & if there’s one I’d have bought one, heloc’s are bad debt ar this point, usually double digit debt, again all of these issues are solved with those but if your gonna live somewhere for a year or two he would probably rent and no amount of realtor ******** changes that, this market is different than a low interest rate environment and people owe thier clients at least to properly explain that to them.

It's worth noting that I am currently on Unit 14 of 28 in the pre-licensing course. 

Question: Is it worth it to perform a cost segregation when you rent out spare bedrooms ? 

As they say, your network will be your net-worth.7.

It is now worth more, in this case, so if you buy the property today on the MLS you pay today's price and get 7.75% interest on a 30 year loan.

Also is it worth looking at already approved and entitled land or is it only advised to start at raw land and get it entitled ourselves which obviously would result in a larger profit.

I mean, if you're over the century mark it probably is too late to start or at least not worth it too. 

However, the investor owes more on the mortgage than the properties are currently worth.

As they say, your network will be your net-worth.7.
