If you have a nice home in a desirable location that would likely go to bid war, it might be worth listing with an agent.

A visit to the local zoning office, and a title search will help you identify these problems.

I think the reason a lot of investors go high end in single family homes could be because you only have one unit, so the profit margins are squeezed, in order to turn a nice profit, you must command higher rents.

My father and I are visiting my brother in the Salt Lake/Park City area.

I have found some really nice vacant tax deed properties in Birmingham and need some recommendations on how to get, I guess, a finders fee.

Also, yes money is nice but for me it’s was much more then that it’s a challenge, it’s a game to fight to the end, it’s competitive and having full control.

Well, at this point, you would think that we closed on the house, renovated it, sold it for a nice profit and lived happily ever after right?

Hoping my Dingle project comes off as nice. 

In my day when I did this we called those hypothecations.. and our bank would routinely loan 50% of our UPB.. and the hypothecation was done through the collateral assignment to the bank.and then when we moved into HML we have nice size credit lines for this we made a new origination and the bank took the collateral assignment as to 56% of ARV or appraisal.. that's how most of us HML did it pre 08.it was great we borrowed from the bank at 6 or so and lent out at 15 to 20 and made the delta..you get big enough lines and its pretty cool business. 

When I come to Tahoe to visit my sister, I'll see if you're available to grab a coffee or attend a meetup!
