. $200,000 and rent will go for about $1,7002% rule might be dead and gone for a while in the DFW sadly 

Seems to be neither a buyer's or sellers market right now....everything is just kinda dead although there is decent inventory.

Went to the neighbors house and were able to see it on their computer.Used my work pc at work to ask a question, that worked.It has never been this dead. 

You may have made some bad decisions,  etc. but that is not who you are and since you are not dead that is not the end of your story.  

My name is Finale Uptegrow (pronounce Fa-Nell) and I am hoping to learn more about affordable housing development and multifamily real estate investing.

How does something dead grow?

I'm not dead set on any type currently but I appreciate all of you taking the time to assist me on this potentially expensive purchase.  

Having your money sit in your house is NOT DEAD EQUITY. 

I just thought the bargain and sales deed meant they couldn’t guarantee there wasn’t someone out there that could claim it since the people were dead and nobody knew after looking if there was any more next of kin they couldn’t find that may some day come forward and try to claim it , they said they couldn’t guarantee anything to insure bc it was a bargain and sales deed since the house was given to the charity but we have the title on it.

Tell me what you know, that I don't please.An unbelievable amount of “red tape”, governmental compliance, bureaucracy, and the placement of “dead end” career bankers into “special assets divisions” results in the most inefficient, unproductive, frustrating and incompetent asset dispossession procedures that only a French career bureaucrat could love ( ok, maybe also a former Soviet 5 year planner).
