I sale the home and have a profit of 25k, Now I wonder how and the best efficient and pratical way to use that little fund to get the maximum return.

You can get forced air natural gas furnaces that are even high-efficiency and so can be "direct vented" (no need for chimneys).In my area, people prefer gas heat.

Actually, I would argue that real estate markets are incredibly efficient.

Our hope, diversity, and energy is our strength.

I agree with Jon's assessment of the choice of state, and would add that IRAservices.com is my choice - cheap and efficient.

But, by-far the biggest consideration (in my opinion) is that lack of competition within the industry and preferable treatment by revolving door bureaucrats means the government is paying way more than an efficient economic model would predict or endorse.

Any other more efficient ways to reach these distressed owners?

Nice article...thanks for sharing.In my experience things are pretty efficient in Austin.

Once bought, I want to lease option it to an tenant/buyer.My exit strategy is lease option to a tenant/buyer.I'm asking myself if this would be more efficient as wholesale.
