I also don't have a license yet so I hope that gives you a good idea of how green I am in this.Thanks in advance and thanks for reading!

You're talking about the Green Mountain area?

Deferred maintenance is a real concern.There are a lot of good properties on both sides of the river, but the IL taxes really eat into any cash flow.

It is a 3bd, 2ba home with a formal dining room, office, living room, family room, & eat-in kitchen.

I wish there were more options to eat. 

Multifamily the landlord is eating skyrocketing taxes.With retail at least the tenants cover it.

Hi Jason, I'm Lori Greene, investor and RE Coach from Huntsville, currently investing near Ogden.

As it stands now, it appears that the borrowers are contesting a lot of the first's FC issue and that being said, I assume that the first has been racking up a lot of attorney fees that would add to the total bill    and eat into any equity that my second ever had in the property. 

I'd imagine you should just start making calls to banks and ask them.That said, one of the things that drives me crazy about BPO agents from an investor point of view is that they are often green, like you, do not know the market and way over estimate the value of a house.  

That drives up vacancy costs, eating into your cashflow.Could these items be overcome?
