Jon...my analysis is about the same so I don't think you are off. Expenses might be a bit higher with the landlord paid utilities but over all still excellent.

The remediation was done by the seller and not a contractor that did a third party test. My concern is whether a proper remediation can be done now that they have painted it with kilz. Thanks for the advice!

Looking to purchase a rehab and the seller has already remediated a mold issue by using bleach and painting everything with Kilz. I am pretty sure this is not the correct method. The house had mold in the attic and in the bedrooms. I have no issues hiring out the mold remediation process but can I do it correctly if it has been painted with Kilz? Is there an air test I can perform? Thanks!

Cameron Chesney I am planning on continuing the post cards to absentee/mortgage lates for at least 2 more mailings for a total of 4 to my list. I have also figured out how to get probate leads for free here in Michigan (it actually $80 per year but that is about free compared to $1.25 a lead through USleadist). I will mail probates at least 4-5 times as well.

Brad Chandler...I did not get any deals out of the 500 addresses I mailed to. I mailed each address twice.

I just completed a mailing with 500 yellow letters to a list I bought from US lead list. I got about an 8% response rate. I also did 300 post cards to absentee and mortgage lates with about a 4% response rate.
