Any other more efficient ways to reach these distressed owners?

Nice article...thanks for sharing.In my experience things are pretty efficient in Austin.

Once bought, I want to lease option it to an tenant/buyer.My exit strategy is lease option to a tenant/buyer.I'm asking myself if this would be more efficient as wholesale.

The price is very low and it has completely changed my company as it has saved me time and made me more efficient.

In an efficient market, rents will be just a tad bit higher than that to compensate the landlord for the effort of doing business.If you own and occupy the home and get the mortgage interest deduction, your after-tax cost is still $70 and you have to put in the effort to manage / maintain the home.My point is that the mortgage interest deduction is not skewing the market in favor of home ownership but is instead leveling the playing field.

The electrician says it's a nominal amount of energy and that it would be very costly for the LL to re-wire this, since tearing into the walls now would mean he would have to bring everything else related to it up to code.

We would never let an appraiser in without being present, and we hand him not only comps, but for the condos we build, we supply information on the construction of the home, our green build certification and energy star ratings, as well as community information.

New boilers are smaller and more efficient, so one tenant will be happy.

If we simply lowered our taxation on corporations and encouraged them to send capital back to shareholders to deploy it efficiently wouldn't it help the overall economy and thus the tax coffers?
