There's SNHU there which is great if you like the student housing model or if you're comfortable with B/C class properties there's many to pick from also. 

Purchase price: $95,000 Cash invested: $55,000 Sale price: $215,000 Pre-foreclose, elderly person living in the house in a extreme poor condition , we offer alternative for his living , We help the owner with a better place to live , we help the bank by giving them Money for a deal that will take a lot of money to be back and functional , we hale the neighborhood by eliminating a house that was a close to tear down and in a bad shape , What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

I understand when it is a bunch of poor choices that add up but I wonder if just the shower head is enough to say hey not this one.   

I hadn't stirred the pot lately and this one was just ripe for picking...

Mostly because I'm time poor (professional job, side business, 1 kid, 1 on the way). 

That was a hard sell for me but I realize that I was making too many justifications for poor spending habits. 

And if you happen to screen poorly and install unfit tenants, that commute will continue to disrupt your life and your kids' lives.  

I see unexplainable debts (possible amounts owed to prior landlords) and late utilities as bad, but the rest is just the poor personal fiannce habits or life circumstances that make applicants renters rather than owners.- Having roots in the community, normally having lived in that neighborhood for several years, or in this case being close to her parents adds screening points.

When you *file your taxes through the US Mail you drop the envelope into a mailbox at the post office where it is picked up every few hours by the postal service.

Too many times I've seen poor rehab designs cause flip properties to sit on the market well past 100 days only to be sold at a discount (loss for the investor).Don't be fooled into thinking design is easy and anyone can do it!
