These have defenses that keep the stock from going too low, he said, adding that in this type of market environment, people need to be conservative.Takeover bids can make people money hand over fist, he said.

I read an article that two guys in Atlanta did a fabulous addition off the back of the house (added 840 sq. ft.) and they published the cost at $125 a square foot.

I'm looking at a property that needs a COMPLETE rehab, and to top it off it's in a historical district which makes it extra hard. on average how long does it take to flip a property like this.

I know going in that most of the people responding to my ads are going to be those with bruised and battered credit.I've done about 5 foreclosures, (trustee's sales as TX is a trust deed state) at a cost of between $1K and $3K apiece.

Would it be worth the extra time to obtain these licenses to have access to the MLS for reasons stated above?

You can normally borrow up to 50k that way.If you are a contractor and do the work yourself you will still have a hard time adding a second story and bathroom plus other repairs for under 50k.My swimming pool cost more than that.If you can pull it off however creative you get with it,you still have to sell by 01/07 and for 335k.or preferably alot more.
