If what you want is someone who can handle big jobs, go to a lumber yard and ask a sales rep there who a good person to work with is.

I know that usually people trade up and buy a property of equal or higher value but let's just say that you buy another property for $150,000 from the cash you received from the sale.

With 104 units, special assessments would run $10,000 per unit.So I gave my buyer several thousand dollars off the sales price due to the problem.

When I go to Lowes I know everyone there and they know me, the in-store commercial guys will call me when there is clearance/closeout stuff they think I might like, and due to my volume purchases I have a good relationship with the regional sales rep who stops by my office for periodic visits and is a great go-to when I'm not getting the answers I want at the store. 

Your ROI is a number close to infinity and you can repeat indefinitely - And YES - there are still deals out there that will work ... one just closed a couple of weeks ago in The Woodlands on MLS at about 70% of value and only needed light rehab - maybe $5,000-$6,000ARV - 177,000Sold - 123,000Rehab - $5,000Total invested - $128,000-$129,00080% refi - $141,000 Rents - $1,500-$1,600 My initial offer was $120,000 - They declined to counter - Now that I see the final sale amount, it irritates me that I was so close but missed the deal  

The only problem is the his house already went through sheriff sale and it's on the redemption period.

I found one that had an eviction notice on the door and a for sale sign in the yard but no listing agent only a number. 

Unfortunately, all of the the sales in the last 24 months were for units that were already remodeled.Or should I do something else entirely?

@Thomas Harr I purchase 3-5 properties a month at tax sales, the MLS and my network of other investors.
