First Deal hiccups in Milwaukee

[David Venancio]

I'm a new investor setting up shop in Milwaukee! I recently found Bigger Pockets and have been listening to podcasts and reading blogs trying to learn as much as I can. Working on my first deal, found a bank owned SFR that had been partially remodeled, looked good - 3/2 $54k. I accepted a counter offer from the bank, set up a inspection.....all good until we got to the property and all the Cooper was gone, sheet rock ripped out and pipes gone!

Guess it could have been worse! But months time gone...

The one thing I'm learning through listening to the post casts is to be prepared for the unexpected.

Thanks for all the great information, looking forward to closing my first deal!
