While its possible she has the financial understanding to properly evaluate this investment choice, its unlikely.

Let me get this straight...You hired a guy who is moonlighting (You say he has a full time job) as a contractor after hours.Then you complain that maybe the quality of work isn't really very professional.And also, he's really slow and his scheduling is all wrong.I've got a news flash for you: If you weren't expecting slow and unreliable from a guy who is moonlighting, you seriously need to re-evaluate your decision making criteria.

Is now a time to re-evaluate whether or not proximity to a university justifies a premium?

I'd rather just get ALL the information myself so I can evaluate it and make an informed decision.

Hi Shannon,You could contact your local title company and either ask them to compile a list for you or request a "title log on profile" and play with the system yourself by typing in the zip code, foreclosures, absentee owners, etc.

there is no simple step by step book/program. wish there was.get a deal that gives you $600 profit/month and learn slowly. you can't learn if you are making $50/month profit. too many ways to get burned and hate life in the process.hard to tell you how to get the deals, but plenty of blogs and threads on how to evaluate deals. 123flip is a great start. he breaks it down so you can calculate your potential profit.

Greetings BP Community, Was hoping if any experience loan investors could help me out with some questions I came across when evaluation a loan for sale on auction.com1) Basically, I am bidding for the 1st position non-performing loan.

Sure she would start out with a manageable amount of logs, but would just keep adding so by the time the fire was fully burning she had overloaded it.

I'm sure if you'll poke around in old threads, you'll find lots of suggestions on how to evaluate your offer price, from people much more knowledgeable about flips than I.In general, there are formulas based on selling, carry and closing costs that go like this:ARV X 60% (or 65% or 70% depending on percentage of profit that a market will accomodate) less the rehab costs = MAO (Max allowable offer).
