Touch base with a local Realtor and see if they can get you a better ARV . . . i rarely use Zillow other than to see if the property is worth looking at . . . then I get a real number with a basis behind it. 

Kitchen as an example....if you touch the electrical at all - which you will - you need to add circuits to bring up to code.

Very unlikely anyone will want to touch this.

I have not touched 2 of the 3 sites in over 7 months.I just focussed on 1 site.This is the SERPs when you search for "Sell My House In Connecticut"All the blue arrows are my websitesSo I occupy the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 10th spot on the serps and I dominate the location map section.People are always so proud to be2nd  3rd or 4th on the SERPs.

I would love to keep in touch and see the three year turnaround.

Wouldn’t know if they would touch that with those kinds of loans or not.

(Yes we are friends)I have a price quote in my inbox that I am very interested in; however the property is owned by an attorney.I hesitate to touch this; however this appears to be a nice property.Thoughts?

But I do have $33,000 in a legacy rollover IRA that a certified financial planner invests for me, and I will tell you that I think of that money as peanuts when it comes to retirement income, as any reasonable person should.All the people I am still in touch with from high school and college have, at best, two nice cars, a nice home, a stack of monthly bills a mile high, family photos take by professionals, and money saved up in a 401K.

I have had very good luck getting in touch directly with owners of multifamily assets, but it has been very difficult carving out a deal.
