Does anyone know how to scrape ads off of FSBO sites, craigslist, etc.?It used to be possible with RSS feeds, butCraigslist seems to have dropped their RSS feed. Haven’t checked many other sites, but it made me wonde...

- If I purchase a 3-4 family, is there any friction when getting permits for Short Term Rentals?

I am working on my first property (flip) with two prospective buyers already and it's not on the market yet!

Thank you all in advance for those “lessons learned.”David - I never purchase the land until I get all of the entitlements and permits and hi Ty the purchase price of the land to the density granted so if you get less than you’re looking for you can reduce the purchase price.Also I begin with the end game in mind and make sure that I have Builders lined up ready to take down the lights when I’m finished so I know what my profit is in advance.If I’m building the houses and developing the land I make sure the market can absorb the inventory at the price point I am projecting and I work everything backwards from there. 

I’ve screened a few prospects and these two are the ones that rub me the right way.

This year sees an upward step for Indianapolis’s 16th place in overall prospects, up a few positions from a year ago.

Inspections will include not just a physical inspection of the property, but also engineering assessments; environmental assessments; zoning and permit inspections; leases and service contracts and finances (3-5 years, preferable prepared by an accountant).   

This money will be used for land acquisition, surveying, engineering, concept plan, blueprints, zoning and building permits, and first 3 unit condo build. 

It was also imperative, and the right thing to do, to only ask prospective tenants "how many occupants (as opposed to how many adults and children)" will be in the home.  

When I went to pull permits, I was told that i needed to submit blueprints.
