Skaters can bring their own skates or rent them for the fun.

The good news is that in these types of cities, there are significantly more properties for sale (albeit at lower price points), and you can gain traction with a few houses per month more easily than in tougher markets like Tampa or Dallas, for example.

I have just purchased a small SFH 2/1 in Miami that needs updating and I am looking for a contractor that can help with the job.Any guidance or references would be extremely appreciated!

Reserves:Most lenders will ask for 6-12 months of reserves to ensure that you can cover mortgage payments if you face financial hardships.

How can I search for other leans that might be on the property, is there a way to see how much mortgage is left on the property and any other tips that people have about this type of real estate.

If anyone has experience in this or has a referral to a legal firm who can help with this I'd appreciate it.Thanks y'all!

I'd like to approach them with purchasing the building but I'm assume they're not wanting to sell it until after the owner's death due to the step up basis.I have first right of refusal but what type of creative financing can I offer so that we agree upon a sale and price beforehand?

One contractor claims he can finish the job in a day with three workers, while others estimate it will take a week.I'm not sure how to proceed with this situation.
