That creates a lot of opportunity for the persistent person. 

Does this require certain contractors like the FHA 203K or does it give more opportunities for who you hire out?

Plus, you will have a different set of opportunities in your home town vs. other places.

It give me the opportunity to make a low ball offer and maybe buy the property at the right price.I don't know about the timeline your asking about.Although I am originally from Alabama, I won't invest in tax liens there because there are much better states to invest and get properties in a relatively short period of time, at least relative to AL.

My motto is...for every obstacle, there's an opportunity. 

But for the moment, we are just trying to take advantage of the opportunity to purchase the house next door, which we can always flip if we don’t have the mojo to fix it up ourselves.

Opportunity or hype?

This seems like an opportunity to me if the numbers are right.

Our tenants tell us how happy and grateful they are for the opportunity to get one of our lease option properties.

Kyle - I just closed another duplex in the area last Friday... it will take some "management" work to iron out the kinks, but this is how we find opportunity.
