What time is considered reasonable to wait? 

and cash flow them while you're waiting in between.  

In return they would ask me….”Well what if I did this to the house and that to the house (spending thousands of dollars in extra’s to the house), how much could I get in rent then”, and it never ceased to amaze me, how they looked at me when I told them that they would still get $750.00 a month.

Is there a way to get the info to purchase this home prior to auction and waiting forever l?

Hello everyone, I'm a 19 year old Italian boy, I'm studying in Miami and I'm trying to invest in real estate in the United States, however I'm not a resident and I do not have an SSN so the banks can not grant me a mortgage, the second problem is that I do not have much money, between 4 and 5 thousand dollars !!

Wait until the market volatility decreases and things shake out?

To me, bringing the deal or the skill is not enough In these situations, offer them a couple of thousand dollars and the opportunity to observe and gain experience 

Do I have to wait a year or 2 when rents are increased to make the ARV higher in order to make refinancing worthwhile?

Cleveland and Oklahoma City are two that come to mind.Should I wait until I have large lump sum to put 20% down on 1M (in 1.5 years) or buy now?

Both units also need brand new septic systems, which the seller will replace.My question is...should I wait the few months for the seller to take care of all of these issues and make sure that it is done right before I purchase, or should I offer him a low-ball cash offer to walk away and then get a HELOC on the property to purchase my next investment.
