If you have any questions feel free to reach out neighbor!!

I am a RE agent, investor and developer in central Houston, feel free to reach out with further questions or if you need help finding land that works with your numbers. - Chris Kersey 

I would start by listening to Glen Sutherland's podcast called A Canadian Investing in the US - tons a great information for free.

I asked about a recent deal, and he was proud to tell me he’s just in the middle of his first.A local RE broker found an “old lady” who owned her home free and clear but with $83k in back taxes owed.

I actually partner with investors on deals just like this so if you are interested feel free to reach out!

The seller is giving me a one year home warranty.As someone who has never bought a house a 20k renovation right off the bat feels very scary.

@Patrick Goswitz  Assuming you're comfortable with the buyer, and you own the property free and clear, a lot comes down to what are you going to do with the 100k?

I would like to find someone that can identify things that a) don't have asbestos and thus don't need to be tested (e.g. kitchen cabinets)b) things that  90%+ likely to have asbestos and thus should be treated as having asbestos (i.e. handle with extreme caution.3) Is there some certification that I can get that states that a home is asbestos free? 

I feel like that doesn't help.
