Back story: House was owned by same lady for over 30 years, rented by brother in law, no mortgage/liens, and currently vacant.

Turns out it was a lady trying to buy houses to wholesale.

@Terrence Evans  GSU is likely to get Turner Field, but you'd be gambling to buy in Summerill and Peoplestown in hopes of a turn around.  

@Jesse T. has a good suggestion on the extension too.I have a doc prep guy that I used to use but last year I had my assistant type up a template for exactly what he was doing and now I just provide that to my title lady.

I have a question about a property that a lady wants to sell...I am not sure if it is a deal or not as I am extremely green!

Guys banking on 10, 15, 20% appreciation in markets where housing is already pricey is quite a gamble.

All told our mortgage, tax, and insurance payments come out to about $750 and if all units were rented out we would pull about $2000 a month.As it stands now we have one unit rented and our roommate pays us $300 a month, so we still cover the mortgage even with 50% occupancy.The house definitely needed some TLC when we closed.It was pretty much trashed, but the previous owners left a consolation prize of steaks and a case of beer in the fridge.The cleaning was a process by itself that included the excavation of about 3000 lady bug carcasses.We also gave the house a fresh coat of interior pain, re-plastered the ceilings, ripped out the old carpet and revived the original hardwood floors, fixed the roof, installed fans and a washer dryer set, and replaced several broken window panes.

The old lady may get ticked if she thinks she is trusted to sell, so tread lightly.

the unfortunate luck of posting an intro at the same time as a pretty lady, but I walk against the herd.

I have a nice single lady with a 4 year old and her  female roommate wanting to rent.
