Let me know if you have figured it out by now.

I tried using an IRC chat, and too many people couldn't figure it out.

I think the best way to figure out prices is just to contact contractors in the area for quotes on different projects - like getting the roof redone or the driveway done.

They need out.Do what you have to to get your financing figured out (including asking around here), and make a good offer.

I would say I have had a slow start, but figure that after I have 5 years under my belt, I will be a solid producer.

I figured that there wouldnt been, since I am basically just doing some marketing for the apartment complexes.

I have never really used a forum like this, so I am still trying to figure out how to post things and find my way around the site.

Depending on your state law, that amount could be as little as $10-20.Then, once you secure or control the house with your option you want to sell that house as fast as you can so you can get to your fat 5-figure pay check.

Based on this and recent sales I figure the home to be worth between 75-80k.

Figure the amount you can borrow using the money you have at 10, 15 and 20% downpayment.
