While Zillow can be almost humorous on individual properties, I think their is some merit in their numbers overall. 

This is where I personally would rather put my $, but I don' tell anybody what to do with theirs, as it's all up to the individual and what makes sense to them?

Luckily there are sites like Nickel Steamroller, Lendvious and PeerCube that have built systems for an individual to also invest parametrically.

Thanks for all the reply, I know the best way to get the best answer is to ask a CPA but the one I talked to have no answer for me - she only told me "depends on the just situation".To clarify a few things to make my point/question clear. 1) This is all done by a Corporation - NOT as a person/individual.

There are hoa dues. sometimes these are very substantial and never stop.   

I have a database of circa 450 names in excel and want to mail merge them into letters but don't obviously want to have to print all of them out individually and do the envelopes etc. manually.Thanks in advance

Works great and makes it dead simple to share individual leads with partners or buyers.

That's the price of the flexibility.If the place is substantially undervalued a really flexible small bank MIGHT go off of value rather than price, so if you are getting a screaming deal with like 20+% instant equity they could possibly go for just 5% out of pocket.Really the same thing if it is a junker and you did the Hard Money/Fix/Refi route.  

I look forward to interacting and networking with as many like minded individuals and wish you all the greatest amount of success and happiness in all of your personal lives and businesses.

Also, verify with the individual who referred they what they did for them.
