Anybody know any body ? 

Homes ARE sitting longer - 3-6+mo is norm for the upper half of the market price range to sell, even at over a million here.   

I need to figure out a way to get a fixer upper and rehab it while I live in it. 

.- Here are before pics- Here are current pics (kitchen cabinets will be 42" with granite; bathroom will have body shower; basement will be partially finished)

I plan on buying upper rental properties and renting to military families for long term investments.

His budget is $700,000 and he is willing to take a fixer upper as long as it's in a good location.  

Are these people looking for a fixer upper that are possibly first time home buyers?

You can look for wholesales but a lot of them are fixer uppers which need updates and repairs(cash heavy deals).

Jackson though provides one of the highest rent to purchase price ratios out side of small upper mid western towns.. and out right Ghetto areas of the larger industrial cities.I like it there people are friendly children have manners  etc etc.
