If you're pro-active with repairs, you can keep ahead of them and schedule them when it's more convenient for you.  

Other than two domestic violence cases, police said narcotics and other illegal activities were involved in some way.

Make sure to listen to all the BP podcasts, read the articles on the main blog and be active in these forums to learn a ton very quickly about any topic in real estate you want to know more about.This is also a great place to meet people that can be assets to your business.

Is your dad an active RE Agent and are you going to hang your license with him.

Disclaimer: I dont know if the listing is actually still active, so this post is 90% because I am curious, should this situation ever arise again.   

I know in the DC area Movement Bank, MVB Bank and First Home are all active on 203ks.

@Blake BroomerWelcome fellow Pennsylvanian.It also depends on what activity that you are doing, flipping, buy and hold, rehabs, wholesale, commercial, development, etc.There are tax implications, as well as liability issues, and anonymity also.The PA Dept of State has an online file that you can check to see if the proposed name is in use.In most cases I'd recommend that the entity name not contain either you first or sur names.In any event, the best advise would be to contact a PA attorney to help decide the type of entity, your planned work and possible other parties involved. 

Wolesalers who operate in this manner not only have "skin" in, but also typically are usually bringing a better deal to the flipper than can be found a listed property especially in an active market.

Glad to see us lurkers getting active! 

Self-managing is great if you are up for it, but it is nice to know that you have an exit strategy from active management.
