I’ve seen off market deals that relied on online estimates and missed the mark by half a mil. 

You cannot be living rent free or you cannot use the rents of the subject property to qualify.  

It takes much longer to evict and while they live rent-free you get nothing. 

The physical beauty here is unmatched.I know the idea of living mortgage-free is exciting, but it's just not doable in an area like Colorado Springs (or Denver just to the north).

Feel free to call me or send me a message.

I'd imagine the same could be true of posting a for-sale sign in the front of the house, a free craigslist ad, or an email to one of my existing contacts saying 'hey, this is for sale!'

If you want to discuss in more detail feel free to reach out. 

Since we purchased it, we brought power back to the property currently set up as 2 RV hookups and additional outlets on a backer board (for a total of 200-amp service), had an RV pad and driveway put in, and had the developed year-round spring well brought back online - there will be a pump house built near the backer board this Spring (1st photo).

if the property is valuable enough you might be able to get one to front the cost before accepting a deed.You might also find an investor willing to take the property for free if they can figure out a way to make some risk-free money.

Nine times in 10, the truth shall set you free, and real life contains sufficient true facts to make it work.
