So I have done several deals in Utah & AZ but I have not done any recently in the last 12 months. I got an email this morning from BP about how this guy (success story below) purchased a triplex for $14K. See story here:

Is this for real? Can you really purchase a property for $20k and cashflow $840/mo? If that was the case, wouldn't everyone be buying out of state? It almost sounds too good to be true.

I would purchase the property cash and do that 2-3 times. You would be sitting pretty good after that right?

F stands for Freaking horrible!

Bad tenants, bad neighborhood, high turnover etc. Stay away from these properties unless you live close to them. 

I usually only see people class properties from A through D so F has to be bad!
