Found the fake ad again on housesforrent (.) ws less than half price. 

I’m just starting off as an investor and the problem I have with analyzing deals is that I find the house and I try pulling the comps but I don’t find anything sold around that house that is within 6 blocks or half a mile from the house I want to invest in!

Currently we have about half of the down payment and closing cost amount saved up. 

I joined on a whim 5 and half years ago and have used a VA loan on one property before I was sent overseas.

She rented a bedsitter (1 room with half bath) off my brother's office for those 3 weeks, and hung out with friends until she could move into the house.

@Jordan Moorhead Are there opportunities where if you are able to find good deals, to find a partner where they provide the money down (with the idea being you'll pay them back for "your half" of the money down they are paying for up front through the investment's performance over time) and you use their credit and your role is to take care of all the property management?

@Jay Hinrichs definitely a lot of vacations happening....on facebook it looked like half of the agents I know were out of town lol.August does tend to slow a bit traditionally as well while families get kids back to school etc too.Hope all is well Jay.

About 10 things came back and the seller has agreed to fix about half of them... noting that the others are probably 'fine.'

This really drives me crazy when people bring half facts to the table to make themselves look better so for my own sake and sanity i Just to get more of the information out there- She said i was so nice when we met well Jenny also presented herself as an honest and fair landlord that wasnt a slum lord and as soon as we asked for anything... she diverted to her husband to handle the slum lord **** show side they presented to us after they locked us down in a lease. 

I own half an acre and it seams like my property is a bit bigger than theirs.
