Some claim to wait months to a year until a property meets their criteria, others are more lenient.

There are thousands available, so obviously not everyone makes money on these.

If you don't want to move you may have to wait till you build up enough equity to use the BRRRR tactic.

This means you do not get to take full ownership to the property until foreclosing on the right to redeem, which you have to wait the year before you initiate this. 

If you're going vacant because they're looking for great tenants who stick around and take care of the space then wait is worth it. 

I'd wait for some other reputable TX attorneys or wholesalers to chime in here, but I'd be getting a license if I were you.

I'm not sure I want to keep wasting my time providing beautiful housing and excellent service to tenants who don't give a sh*t, spending each and every weekend crawling around in attics and crawlspaces of rentals with no time to even do my own laundry, or testifying at city council meetings--literally getting personally insulted by council members in the process--after waiting 6 hours a pop just to do my civic duty.  

If you wait until age 59 1/2 or older to take an i-kind distribution of the property, federal taxes will apply,and depending on your state of residence, state taxes may also apply; however the 10% early distribution penalty will not apply. 

I would venture to guess you could get $1500-$2k a month for a short term tenant who is waiting for their new home to be built.

Now I’ve been sitting in the property waiting to sell it, and paying holding fees to my mortgage company and utilities, etc.
