Soon after purchasing the home, I found the ceilings were made of horse hair plaster.

In areas like Dallas or Fort Worth, I’ve seen professional cleaning range from $300–$600, especially when dealing with pet-related cleaning like removing cat hair from carpets.

Your property is fairly destruction proof, costs near nothing to maintain, yet you can charge above market rents.If your property is nicer (class B) where the carpet alone might be $6k or more to replace when the tenant spills hair dye everywhere, you won't be as happy as in the situation above.  

Starting all over from scratch... my gray hair is turning back black....LOL.   

The auctions are just as dry as the MLS and wholesaler deals. 

Dry and hot.

All of that is pretty cut and dry. 

That being said, I still want to pull my hair out sometimes because of the difficulties investing and working here.

MLS seems pretty dry, especially where im operating.Thanks in advance.

Joe its all about NPV  and rate of return for investors.. either way your going to take a pretty big hair cut out of your equity to do what your wondering about.
