Firstly, i want sure if this is the proper forum to ask this question.Also, please pardon my ignorance with regard to these topics, I've only purchased 1 home so far, and am trying to assist my wife and her father.My father-in-law just told us that his house was written off a few years ago after some sort of bankruptcy.His wife passed away last year and he wants to start preparing his will.This was my wife's childhood home and she wants to try and keep the house in the family ..... which doesn't seem likely to me once her father passes, considering it was written off and they don't have the title.1.

I typically will "help" the appraiser do their job by bringing valid comps with details on each comp as many appraisers come from out of area at times and are not familiar enough to do a proper job so it is often up to the investor to make sure the job gets done right.

@Gerardo Waisbaum There are VERY few purpose built 3 and 4 unit properties in Indianapolis proper.

Take the time to familiarize yourself with the process and deliver the proper notice so you can be up and running when the time comes 

I think the article is right on when it says, "the city’s biggest advantage is that it pairs affordability with growth".

I wonder if there's a proper way to rent out rooms or "units" without having to chop up the house and adding separate entrances and meters.
