I called the permit inspector, he mentioned all the permits would have to need to be pulled again.

Hi @Ronan M.Good call.

Heres what i did, and i could have took the long way and i havent had any deals yet but ill break down my trial and error and the method i feel will work best for me.first, i searched zillow for homes that are selling for low cost, found the owners and mailed yellow letters of course-the problem with this is, a lot of these homes still have loans on them and probably bank owned already, the owner still lives there, theres already a realtor on the job, just way too many obstacles, i dont expect to get any calls from those letters but you have to start somewhere.next, i started searching on auction sites for homes that did not go up for auction yet or the auction expired-again, the problem with this is the homes are 9/10 bank owned. while some of them are foreclosures theres still extra loops to jump through.I considered buying lists of vacant homes and stuff but i am the most frugal person you will ever meet lol, its not that i cant afford to buy a list, its just that i know theres a different way and plus whoever made those list had to have someone else generating that list for them.

There is a local real estate investors group called PREIA. 

You learned a lot, call it education.

It was called ABQ REI and they meet every 3rd Wednesday of the month.

What you are proposing is called dollar-cost-averaging and works well in stocks. 

They originally said they were sand fleas, but the exterminator called me today after inspecting the house and told me they were pet fleas.

Call a local builder.

Forward the calls to your cell phone.
