Given we plan on flipping several houses a year, and we are creative types with a some limited background in interior design, we'll likely go with Option C and do it ourselves.I'd be curious as to people's experiences with professional stagers, and whether you felt you got proper value and return on your investment at the end of the deal.

My mortgage broker said that the new Jan 10 laws limit cash our refi.

Strangely enough, I love my job and it pays the bills (barely) but I've come to realize that it's not going to make me wealthy.So I'm looking to learn a lot (more) from this site to discover what my niche might be in REI (wholesaling, rehab/flipping, buy & hold, etc) with my current limited resources.

If the spread is to thin hard money becomes obsolete.Some appraisers provide limited or desktop appraisal for smaller fees.

Since property tax increases are limited to the lower of inflation or 5% it's possible for the taxes for a long-time owner to be well below what a new buyer would pay since the taxes "uncap" upon sale.

On the good side, it is free & clear :).So, the potential deal that this post refers to would work really well with the limited cash I have on hand right now, and give me more Land-lording experience so that when I DO sell my personal residence and start to use that money to acquire more rentals, I will also have that benefit.

Even here in my state where we get them out fast some counties such as Fulton has limited Marshall staff to serve the evictions which increases another 4 to 6 weeks on getting them out in that county.

I just spoke with US Lead list and they are limit the sales of the inheritance list and they are sold out, they told me that there is some but minimal overlap as most of the list is not probates.Are there any other vendors that sell these types of list that someone can recommend?

I'd much rather be a recognized business with hundreds of properties that banks jump at the chance to lend to than a "nobody" with tons of hidden assets that has limited access to debt/capital to continue to grow with.

What I am finding a little difficult now, is I'm not sure I understand where exactly to go to find distressed homeowners on the county websites including but not limited to back taxes and code violations...
