I believe there will be changes in the energy landscape (see Solar panels could destroy US utilities - according to US utilities) in the next few decades.

So anyone if you can, please drill and correct me so I can make this deal happen to be a win win situation for me and anyone interested by the bay area.Vallejo house infoSFR 4 bedrooms and 2 baths1600+ sq ft8700+ lot sq ftBuilt in 1983HVACAttached two car space garageFireplaceHigh Overview Breakdown285k ARV30k to 35K estimated repairs8% Closing Costs on Sale%40% annualized3 months to complete (This is a very light fixer)10% profit for rehab is 23K22k closing costs on sale203K wholesale price includes 5k fee.

we used the extra blown in insulation to fill in the crawlspace under the kitchen and under the bathroom.I used the foam in a can to seal all the light mounts and smoke detector mounts with firestop and I am happy to say the house is more quiet and the heat pump does not struggle anymore! 

I'm asking because the landscape changes constantly and I think it would benefit everyone to hear how deals are getting done by our peers.  

I can certainly shed some light on the foreclosure process for you here on the island.

Broken faucets or light fixtures, clogged drains, etc.  

Hi every one, First i have to say great site, i've been reading different discussions for a while now and finally decided to take the time and join.I've been in the construction field for some time now, and also worked as a union elevator mechanic  throughout NY and NJ for about 10 years. about 3 years ago invested all i had into starting a small landscaping business. although i haven't seen any return ( all profit seems to go back into the company, always a new piece of equipment to purchase) it is growing.

They could be a touch low if you consider CapEx and a are looking at a long term hold.Can you quickly reposition the current properties to be profitable, for example increase rents with a light remodel?

I know prices were starting to soar a little bit, with the prospect of light rail.
