If it falls through, you keep whatever you didnt give the seller, as its nonrefundable.The sellers that I hear from, cant sell their homes, because it needs repairs, and they think its worth top dollar.

I can't say that I have seen anything that will top someone using old carpet out of their own home, but I have seen a lot of cheap work done by people with no construction knowledge.In the shows defense, they don't always film the idiots.

I won't be really helpful here with reasons because I can't really pin down anything that they did that was specifically wrong but I just don't get the warm fuzzies dealing with them.I guess my feeling was that they should have been more on top of some things, telling me rather than waiting for me to get the info from them to tell them.

I just found this site and thought it might be a good tool for me to use.a little about myself and what i have been doing -i work for a fantastic small company and have been here for a few years.

Glad to hear you like the new look of our 3 "bubbles" at the top of the forums.

From that I bought my first property, a 130 year old top and bottom duplex that I completely gutted and converted back to a SFR.

I got into it by accident as I got sick of my guy doing crap work on MY tubs and tops and charging a fortune.

After that, find a local real estate investing club and do your best to contact the top 5 successful people in that line of investing.
