I have always read to look for that first deal around 80-140k maximum and I have seen increasingly less and less houses that meet the requirements I need.

I look forward to expanding my network and meeting other like minded people close to me!

The meet up will be at The Grill.

I put the few questions in parentheses.Thank you,TonyPlan:possibly start out with small, unimproved/vanant land1)Find buyers and make a buyers list--Market your wholesaling business---Using bandit signs "I sell houses dirt cheap"---Business cards---Internet---Real estate meet-ups2)Find a lawyer that can help make a contract--due diligence clause--option agreement--allow both parties to know who you are representing to avoid legal disputes (buyer & seller)3)Find my target area where I will do my house searching--Using the County Appraisal District4)Find distressed properties--Tall grass--Piled up mail--Boarded up windows--Take a pen & paper, take notes and pictures of the property5)Create an excel spreadsheet of the property--Owner-occupied?

There are a lot of good potential flip properties that wouldn' meet the 1% rule (if refinance at the ARV). 

need help on painting walls on my new purchase home where I have old what trim and cabinet

@Naeem BarbourIt's a pretty loaded question, but a simple answer would be that a "good deal" is a property that meets your purchase criteria.So as the first step, I would focus on figuring out:What are your goals with real estate?

Window on either side of attic would have to become doorway... with flight of stairs down either side of house to meet fire code.I see myself occupying the first floor.The total breakdown by floor would be as follows:Floor #1 - 4 rooms, kitchen, full bath (Total = 6).Floor #2 - 3 rooms, kitchen, laundry, full bath (Total = 6).Floor #3 - 1 room, kitchen, full bath (Total = 3)So, My question: Do the projects justify the rental?

Hi everyone,I'm meeting a seller to sign all the paperwork to purchase her property tomorrow.

To help get the best appraisal and value, you'll want to meet the appraiser, help them with the data collection, and be sure to tell them all of the upgrades you have done to improve on its value.
