How can you structure the numbers and market the property to make it more appealing than the other options I would have in the same area?

Doing this, you will know a neighborhood, the approximate age, what amenities are in a hosue similar to it and it's curb appeal/condition...roughly.

After I win judgment I then have to wait 5 days to make sure they don't appeal.

Bank of New York Mellon FKA The Bank Of New York as Trustee is taking me to court and I believe that this is a MERS entity which Mich court of Appeals ruled that they could not forclose, but I need to know if in Fact that this is a MERS and I need to know exactly how do i find out

In this case, and maybe because of the economy, it obviously isn't guaranteed.My dilemma is that I stopped advertising/showing the house when she gave me the deposit, and the thought of starting all that again is not appealing.

I've been reading BP for a few hours and it seems like there is a ton of great information here as well as a lot of friendly and helpful members.A little about me: I have a background in residential construction and I always found the idea of rehabbing SFH's appealing.

I'm a professional photographer, and it pays to spend a hundred or so to have someone take images for you.

FWIW, in my property-management classes we were told that payment of rent in advance is a huge red flag - like most scams, the appeal to your "greed" can sometimes be used against you.

Then again, I still believe that my broker wants me to be a full time agent which does not really appeal to me.

You can also clean the house, remove the cluttler and hire a photographer to take professional photos.
