It just SEEMS that Zillow gets the most interest-maybe that varies regionally or locally???

They have more skin in the game then you do.Make sure you get clear title.

You walk in there and it's a rat warren of dudes watching streaming video games with recycling piled up on the counter tops.

Investing is numbers game and calculations, in my opinion, are the main factor when I decide on a purchase price.I only have single families but hope my advice helps.

Typically about $3200, but it varies greatly depending on how bad it is.
