Interested to see what other people think about this.

Many people who sell say the reservations transfer but sometimes you don't want those bookings.

If you have any doubt about it being occupied or not you could put a notice at the door and say that its your property and that you will enter on a given date.You probably should provide a phone number so people may  call you. 

Note: you can Never hire a parent, sibling, child,grand child or yourself to work on the property and none of these people can live in the property.    5.

This is where having local experienced people to over see your rehabs a big value.Best of luck.

For me, it's a waste of my time to post on any one of them, because my comment will only be on one of them.

Pm me and i can provide details.You link up with some of the NW suburbs people like @Mark Ainley, @Mark Faustrum, @Joe Mueller, or @Chris Davis.  

Happy to jump on a call if you want further insight into Hammond and the people you don't want to piss off:) 

Asking to pick someone's brain, to a seasoned investor or wholesaler, sounds like a waste of time because you didn't set it up.Your best set up is to lay out the deal or the specific dilemma so someone can answer that specific thing instead of just having their brain picked.

Rental information for this area is slim and I'm not sure how many people are looking to rent out homes in this area.Thanks!
