Hey everyone, There are various ways to analyze a specific property and there are ways to individualize different elements of Market and Neighborhood data. 

So maybe my ultimate philosophized answer is that the best place to live in 10 years or today, when you're rich or when you're poor is in the hearts and memories of your children and the people you have impacted for good on your journey.If you define success the right way you'll always achieve it.  

If the tenants are paying regularly even considering poor landlordship from the previous landlord then they might be good tenants to keep.

Hi AdamI am a local from Adelaide and also find the BiggerPockets podcasts and forums full of great information.There are a number of factors to take into account when considering a trust or company in Australia, like Lindsay said, it will depend on your personal situation, tax position and the individual investment.

We also make offers to private individuals (or thier SDRA'S) to borrow money at 70-75% of ARV.

However, Zillow is led by very forward thinking individuals, and I wonder if they are hedging their bets against the uncertain future of real estate agents by piloting their "Instant Offers" program.

You may feel safe as a law enforcement officer but you may also be liable if that individual decides to murder one of his neighbors.

Why would someone give a property and/ or money away for no upfront compensation to someone with poor/ no credit history.

I put together a custom google map that labels and grades the individual neighborhoods in the area (based off my own personal research and visit).

To your point about having money left for renovations, you can put as little as 5% down on a conventional, but how that's affected by the investment status is decided by the individual lender.Then you have "investment" loans, which will most likely all require around 20% down, ours requires at least 20% with excellent credit.
