Seems to be personal information that a Court would accuse you of having the "upper hand" in an unbalanced transaction.

i.e. you cant rent out your $150,000 house to move in to a $80,000 fixer upper on a USDA loan....at least that's how I understand it.

But it can be difficult, and in some cases just isn't feasible or realistic, to buy a true "fixer upper" with a traditional (conventional, FHA, or VA) mortgage.

About 6 months ago we put our house on the market, sold it, bought a fixer upper that we will stay in for a few years to rapidly pay off our debt and then add the house to our rental portfolio eventually.  

12 condo units foreclosed on.  20 years old, repair high end $8000 each, plus roof repair and common landscape clean up.  Exterior paint also.  $110K each ARV.  If someone could buy in bulk all 12 offering say $75K th...

Hello,I have done quite a few fixer-upper projects from smaller ones like changing carpet to bigger ones like new plumbing and new electrical system.

That's no way to invest and even worse way to start an investment portfolio.Our first two homes (condo and SFR) were both fixer uppers that we put a lot into and rented out for a bit until the boom drove prices up and we sold.

That was killing me for years.I got into a fixer upper 2 months before the bubble burst in 2008, and I had no clue what I was getting into.  

Hi BiggerPockets,I recently bought a home in LA -- it was $600K and I put 3.5% down with an FHA loan.I live here and am breaking even, since I rent out the spare bedrooms to friends of mine.I recently came into some money and have $100K to invest with.I'd like to invest in an "up-and-coming" city like Detroit, Baltimore, Richmond, etc.My goal would be to buy a fixer-upper and put 100% cash down, rehab it, then use it as a buy-and-hold investment for rental income, as well as long-term appreciation.Any recommendations as to what cities I should look into?

If you're talking about a duplex or a triplex I'll go out on a limb and say that they are managed by the current owner, there aren't any rent rolls put together, most P&L statements would be garage, etc.
