I spoke to family of the offender, and I honestly believe he got a bad break (serious baby momma drama - not to get all men's rights activist here, but it is truly unholy how much weight the word of a woman-scorned carries in our justice system, particular if the accused cant afford a decent attorney.)

This home had original 1950 kitchen and bath - in acknowledgement of our updates, value was adjusted a whopping $3,000 to 98K.The report goes on to say that most weight is given to comp #4 as it is most recent at 60 days.

Well worth its weight in gold if you ask me.

Truly insulted, MariaI have no idea why she`d be insulted.Below is the Original Email.I will be using you for the purchase of the property,if I purchase it.Need to get the ARV and written work estimates before I know whether or not the numbers are good.

You don’t get any of the same satisfaction from viewing pixels on a screen of your investment status as you do from seeing a closet full of canned goods and critical supplies all stocked up at home, or admiring the luster and weight of a .999% pure, precious metal coin in your hand.

That said, an eviction is fairly insignificant as far as legal proceedings go and how much weight would a judge give it even if a defendent printed out an anonymous scenario that matched there own?

For family, I take many losses but the gain is their wellbeing which out weights the losses any day.

My social group these days pretty much consists of Harley Owners Group people who are all succesful in what they do and don't need to network for more business or brag or talk shop or do anything but follow our official motto which is "Ride and Have Fun".And while that's our official motto, every year we raise thousands of dollars for worthy causes or individuals in need or we help deliver hundreds of Christmas presents to local kids and that doesn't even count showing up at nursing homes to play bingo or eat ice cream or roar kids around the parking lot at the Ronald McDonald house or, well, the list goes on.What a true blessing it is to be able to give back.So personally, when some cube-dweller figures I've got some kind of easy racket going, or some contractor I hired with a hand-shake rips me off with the final bill because he thinks I print money, or some unemployed carpenter I hired to help him out breaks into my storage shed and steals my stuff because he knows 'all landlords are wealthy', well, I just can't worry about what the people who don't matter to me think.

Looking for a deal in the Chicagoland area if you have any suggestions to help me find one fell free to weight in .

Common sense as well as every book / blog / forum post that I have read says that you should secure your financing before making an offer on a property, but this seems backwards for hard money, as the lender wants to see your investment before lending out any money.Can anyone shed light on this part of the process?
