I've got an unusual situation I've never dealt with before. I was contacted by a seller trying to sell her mother's home AS-IS (mother is alive, but in a nursing home with severe dementia). The mother is on Medicaid t...

She had no solutions and the only thing I wanted to do was to buy rentals.

We are implementing a $2,600,000 redevelopment plan to modernize the property and set it up for future generations.

Or you could just install doors, which would help with draftiness, and be an attractive permanent solution.

Looking for some help:I am in a very frustrating situation, where I have a duplex I am ready to sell ( not very modernized, but habitable).Here’s my issue though – the contractor who was getting it ready to sell, is now completely MIA.

As much as I like giving the neighborhood kids some side work for the summer, this is a business and I need a long term solution. 

Markets with strong economic and demographic trends and diverse. modern economies are going to provide a better total return in the long run.

Islamic/Halal solutions to make things OK when borrowing or lending for a vanilla home purchase, it turns out from what I've seen Muslims have put more thought into this than other groups, some taking the concern more seriously than others (the more profit-motivated institutions taking the theology less seriously, as is normal in the world).

But more affordable doesn't mean more valuable.Part of the solution involves educating investors how to properly create their pro-forma.Vacancy =/ Leasing Fee:  Far too often investors say they place 8% for vacancy which should also cover their PM's leasing fee.  8% is close to 1 month, and PM's typically charge 1-month for leasing fee.Problem:  Typically PM's pro-rate the first month. 

I view them only as a short term solution for a short term need.
