@Dustin MooreIf you proceed with this deal be sure to have the property inspected (go with them) to determine the condition and usable life expectancy of all major components and appliances.  

@Laureen Youngblood  its a risk  but that's what developers do.. we take risk  and if the stars all align we make nice rewards. 

There is almost nothing usable beyond the structural components.  

Hey Zach, I usually use the scale when I faced with options/opportunities and if there pro's outweight the con's then I go with the pro's....If it aligns with your Financial goals..Good luck.

@Tara Ballenger Mine is single family, fully remodeled and landscaped single family home, 1 car garage in the back corner with a long drive along the side for lots of off street parking1450ish sq ft 3 bed 1 bad (1 bath sucks and it's a 1910 home so a little wonky on the floor plan in regards to the stairs to get upstairs) As for the good tenants part, I had lots and lots of people apply, we waited for what appeared to be the right one's.I'd rather have no tenants then bad one'sThis was my first property with some speculation component in regards to the area improvingI made sure all the math worked for me regardless of the hope for a lot of appreciationWe'll see how all the new building plays out, in 5-10 years it should be a whole different areaThe new copper penny was the linchpin to unlock a better future for that area, even with all the current construction if you look up what the pdc owns there's still a lot of land around already bought and waiting for development.

Don't pull at your emphasis on the state but have it be a component of the whole algorithm to evaluate a deal.  

If you're using a wholesaler and you're new to the industry, you're lacking two of the critical components to make things work and make yourself appealing to investors with cash.

Hi @Linda Weygant,I know this thread is old but this is the only one i could find that aligns with my situation.

I would recommend reaching out to them and asking for referrals or a list of companies certified in specifically cleaning up methamphetamine labs.I'd expect a certified company to follow these high-level steps: Testing: Quantitative pre-testing to determine how contaminated your property is, and which areas are most contaminated.Cleanup: Clean the home of leftover belongings and debris, and remove porous components like furniture and carpeting.Vacuuming: Use HEPA-certified vacuums to remove all dust from the property.Decontamination: Decontaminate every square inch of the propertyPost-Testing: After the property is cleaned, run more tests to document that the home is completely clean.

Every component of this spells disaster.
