But the process of trying something new was fun and I would be lying if I said I didnt want to try my hand at it again!

Areas with cheap properties and good initial rent to purchase ratio typically are so because they are not expected to have poor appreciation or they have something that makes them perceived to be high risk. 

This one tenant, I was considering him, but in my 40+ years of experience, something wasn't right so I kept on asking for more documentation. 

Pretty simple math or am I missing something in your logic?

If something goes wrong, you will ruin the relationship right along with the investment.If you do partner with family or friends, have a very detailed, written agreement to protect each other. 

I would love to have something in Niceville or Crestview.

I would like to invest in real estate by doing something similar to a live in flip just to get the ball rolling with my real estate investing.

thanks for the good info. the address of the building is 816 E 90TH PL. something was telling me that my trip to the building department would be unsuccessful ..thanks for confirming my theory. yes the violations require many permits for sure. no the building does not have a red X on it. i believe red X should warn the firefighters about structural damage, previous fire damage etc. what's the process in that case ?

I’m not trying to be greedy and ask too much on discounts for the flips, I am literally just trying to find something profitableMy question is….

But something we did for the co-hosting group we're in that I recommend for everyone....
