I've made more money since 2010 with a small amount of money and using leverage than that money would have ever made in the stock market, even over 40 years. 

Definitely some money to be made in the large public Universities 

I'm sure there are folks out there who have made it work but for us the list was mainly for buying at auction.

Property was bought by a family and they build a nice big custom home on it. 

To me, it is a sign that there would be good communication once you are a customer. 

Own property next to a Dollar General Store and looking for a business/idea that would complement DG, attract their  client/customer base

We found 3 of the Flips just mentioned pre-market by word-of-mouth & still paid a little too much, but the last purchase/sale made up for that. 

I made the last rent payment after she passed away.

Also, they are usually very conservative on refi appraisals and if the value they come up with is a lot higher than they see I paid they will usually call me and ask what kind of improvements I made to the property.If you sell it on the other hand and get a contract at a much higher price due to the higher rents they probably will appraise it much higher to get to the contract price.Makes no sense to me personally, value should be value regardless of why they are appraising it.

Though I haven't made final decision yet, but I am inclined towards selling the house and re-investing the money.
