Hey @Jason WildeJust curious if you ever pulled the trigger on the midwest! 

My Landlord let my housemate open a hair cutting business on our joined front porch.

Many come to learn, few pull the trigger, especially when it comes to this non-traditional side of investing. 

I just returned a partial deposit with photos printed on 8 1/2x11  paper of a year and a half worth of dog s**t, with close ups :), filthy, disgusting bathtubs, a stove that looked like it had never been wiped even once, floors with mounds of dog hair and dirt.

To be honest I probably pulled the trigger a little early as I didn't have a lot of cash on hand when I purchased and the rehab on a house built in 1900 can be challenging. 

When I find one that I am ready to pull the trigger on, I will certainly do that.

Be able to pull the trigger the same day and close quickly.  

My name is Brian, I just became a REALTOR® (primarily for investment purposes) and I'm finally getting close to the point of being able to pull the trigger on a deal when I find one that fits within my system.
