There is a forty block low income neighborhood a mile from our house in Longview, that is our current investment focus.

He will also be happy that you're fixing up this eyesore on the block.

If its cinder blocks you will obviously need a sledge hammer and also if there are cinder blocks in the window frame then the windows were removed.

Installing a new glass block window in the main hallway bathroom really added a nice touch, but the tile choices from Home Depot are what really put the upstairs bathroom “over the top.”

We're planning on flipping this one for a projected $12-$15k profit on the backend and now I've got my eye on a vacant FSBO property a couple of blocks from me in a good area that I may try an owner-finance and then rent it out.

Just today I went to look at a smaller building with 10 one-beds two blocks from a good university in Cincinnati.

The two properties are in SW Portland just a block away from the house I just finished.

Do you know if that could be a major road block with being a wholesaler?

The whole block looks great, while my house looks a bit dumpy.  

I thought it was a good deal, but ordered an inspection and came up with a number of issues including the following:-cracks in the foundation cinder blocks although told that's easy to replace - roof has 3 layers.
