Most Realtor contracts detail in the Buyer Deposit section that the deposit is the only liquid damages entitled to the seller in the event of default.

I was talking to Brandon about this the other day and said to him, "Honestly, the first blog I found on flipping real estate was the most useful because it went into so many great details about the deals!

The acquired building were over 100 years newer and had more modern/desirable features like central air conditioning, integral garages, and fireplaces.Another time I 1031ed property in a distant town for property much closer at hand and easier to manage, it also commanded higher rents.

Without having any details on the house (where it's located, what it's worth, how much it needs in repairs, etc), there's no way to know.

One major regret I have was not listening to my wife in regards to some important details I overlooked at the end of the project (don’t tell my wife I admitted she was right!).

Less headache of having to deal with having them give opinion, signing titles, etc.I of course offset that with the fact that the credit line will most likely be tied to you personally, whereas the specific deal may not as they have an asset tied to.Without knowing all the details, that's about the best opinion I can offer.Either way, doesn't sound like it's a bad problem to have.

I've actually found some reasonable (SFH) properties in Connecticut by auction, that are below $100k, and that are not in a distressed zip code.These folks on BP seem to be willing and talented to explain the finer details of real estate investing.

I typically am able to achieve this with no $$ down as I get an as completed appraisal and ensure the property appraises for the $$ I need to buy and fix at 80% financed.About a year ago, I got a great deal on the MLS and was able to buy the property, fix it up and still have roughly $20k of equity in it (at 80% value- DETAILS-bought for $50k, invested $30k, appraised for $125k.

I wouldn't suggest staging the bedrooms as it can make them appear smaller, as previously stated.I just flipped a home built in 1954 and staged it with mid-century modern styling and everyone who saw the "jewelry" loved what I did with the place.
