As long as your city isn't becoming a ghost town there are still people buying houses.

(do you need permits for any of the work - call the town to ask GENERAL INFORMATION about permits and such).k, so 12k in repairs and let's say 12k in closing costs = 24,000now let's just saaaayy, you'll have a mortgage payment, and i'll just throw a number out there to save time and typing = 2500 month (includes PITI)and you plan WORST CASE SCENARIO OF HOLDING TIME - 6 MONTHS= 15,000you sell it with a realtor = 3% comm at 300k = 9,000add it up = 48000 total cost of project soup to nutsso, you buy for 239k + 48,000 = 287,000 sell for 300k...profit = 13kbasic but you get the point - try this: you probably shouldn't pay more than 180,000 for it.

Being in the suburbs, i am not sure that i want to look in the actual city due to the time of the drive down there and the fact I don't know much of the town (i have not lived here all my life).

Looking to purchase, rehab and flip REOs and short sales in the Brockton area and surrounding towns.

unfortunately I got called out of town on the week of the tax lein sale.

The house is a large 2 1/2 story home in a small town in Indiana.

As a Bridgeport agent/resident, the town has a lot in the works.

I owned a couple of 4 family apartment buildings, but got out because I was traveling out of town on business a lot, and the time/hassle was not worth the potential returns (one building consistently made me money, the other did not, but I could have probably turned it around)Anyways, now I'm older and exploring getting back into things.

I got that from going on foreclosures.com and looking up the community informationFor most of the towns around here it was around 13-14% vacancy so I just madei t 15 to go on the safe side when doing the numbers...I dunno tho i'd have to check with some realtors around here though to get better numbersAnyway, I'll try to find the tax office around here...thanks!

In our city, a university town, the best and closest neighborhoods can get from $1150 to $1500 for a group of students.
