As I look at a description of a property including pictures I might estimate the ARV and the cost per SF of repairs.

Hi, My name is Carlos Ortiz Im a new member to BP, and would like to give a brief description of myself.

If you've got earth washing away around the house or below the foundation that is causing the foundation to sink into the ground, you may be looking at 10's of thousands of dollars.A much better description or some photos would be needed to really give any type of useful feedback.

The ones near me share a wall (more like a duplex), which might be more common and why they felt the need to note that it was "detached" in the description you're referring to.Here's some more reading on the topic: Pros and Cons of PUDs and What makes a PUD a PUD article.

Since you left that out of your initial description i don't think you should get defensive about comments that show concern for your safety.

For example, when some one calls looking to sell the VA takes note of the type of property and its description.

that's great description @K.

. :)I was going to leave it at that, but the bank foreclosed on the legal description, the property it held as collateral.

It is possible this varies by the market, but in Milwaukee it is pretty clear that a large number of renters use craigslist to find an apartment.The keys to a good craigslist ad are using pictures along with a good,succinct description.

Kendrick Bowman lol nice description, the science guy has been known to buy RE from time to time!
