As landlords, it's unfortunate but risks are part of the job.

Also seen the opposite where decent lot, decent price, looked clean, but when I got there must have been $100,000 in cleanup needed with all kind of trash and junk on that lot.I've never been to Harris county auction, but from what I understand they have multiple auctions and maybe even different locations depending on the precinct, so know where to go if you can.At one time there was a lady that would offer orientations at Harris county maybe 1 hour before the auction starts.When you are ready to bid, know how to pay. 

Granted the terms I offer a lot of the time aren’t amazing (they have very low interest rates), but that’s the only way I can make deals work.

Situated on 5 acres in Linden, MI, the property offered a single-family home with a pole barn, promising versatility and market appeal.

Detroit offers way more than MS!

Just look for a shop that will teach you the basics of real estate contracts, offers, MLS navigation, and disclosures. 

Nice job getting something in Longmont for such a great price.

2-4 units offer less vacancy and more cash flow (if done correctly) but you will have to deal with more tenants.

I recently had to relocate for a new job.

We had our attorney terminate the MTM, so she quickly offered via our attorney to pay the $130 she held back for cleaning, her MD copays & meds, also pay the rent overdue for that month.
