I have seen a man who when he reads the contracts, will make notes on the right hand margin of the page with a line going back to the portion of the contract that he is noting about.

Hi Steve,Thanks for your post and info on Oxford House.

Interest is low on the house and has a great cash flow, always has been.

My best deals weren't beautiful, but had good bones and upside potential.Run your numbers carefully.

Now the property is free and clear no liens on it.  

I have a house in Toledo, Ohio that I’m trying to get over the line with section 8 inspection.My contractor (who I know and trust) did significant work to ensure the house was up to code.The first scheduled inspection was cancelled by the inspector stating there were too many deficiencies, I endeavoured to reach out for details of the deficiencies but was met with silence and unable to get any info.The second inspection came back with a list of 18 items, some of which I consider petty, such as a small groundhog hole in the backyard.She is also asking for “Front attic window area and front fence needs a full house lead clearance examination by a licensed lead inspector “.

No damage to the condo and power is on, but no city water. 

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

Basically, if your deal is a deal - it's going to sell at a good % You will not need additional, expensive dispo tools or Joint Ventures.

I would love any tips, tricks on a first purchase.If anyone has any leads on off market properties for my first investment it would be greatly appreciated.
