So I'll keep hunting for houses/MF or will just buy land deals in great areas that don't require grinder pumps or that already have taps in place.

The learning and effort needed to hunt down severely undervalued properties, sometimes out-of-state, the learning and effort of doing renovations and managing contractors, the learning and effort needed to list properties, screen tenants and perform property management - these are things that are needed in running a real estate BUSINESS.

I haven't closed my first wholesale deal yet (mostly because I've been so busy with my full-time job and going to classes to get my license) but I've been hunting for leads and getting into the biz as much as I can for a while.

And I am the last one to steer you because the properties in one of the formerly-edgy, tired old neighborhoods are the ones with the most likelihood of appreciation and the neighborhoods I point buyers to. 

If it is going to leave you distraught if you walk in and your carefully selected paint or carpets are damaged, don't do this.What is your plan after the house hunting gig ends?

., computer, internet, printer, answering machine or Vonage Phone, Stamps.com, then start house hunting. 

I would love to be able to read every @Brian Burke blog as they come out and not have to hunt them up.

First to admit we just never thought it would end.. my partner would leave right after Elk hunting season for Maui for the Winter I had a home in the Napa valley and would hang there playing golf most days and working a few hours a week on new sales for the coming year.. but when it was sales and logging time.. it was 7 days a week for about 4 months... 

Lots of undervalue deals and hidden potential.Happy Hunting 

Am on the hunt for the next but is being challenging.
