How do you permanently remove briar bushes so that they don't return? Dig down to the roots or any poison?

What's the cheapest most effective route towards fumigating a property that's been vacant for one year? Not a rental, my primary residence.

I'm specifically wondering if it's more profitable to go knocking on doors and avoiding what's already gone public altogether? I can only assume that EVERY Investor and their Mother would not only be lining up at the doors, but willing to pay more just to land a project hence a listing being "overpriced" ...
Thoughts?

Ugh! The Hawthorne district! I can totally see that and what a killer ROI!

In Dallas, it's a sellers market. Inventories are extremely low so if buying a home to flip, you're ARV's can be a bit higher than comps depending on the updates you do as homes here are getting multiple offers. I have my home on zillow as a "make me move" and getting many calls from agents wanting to know when we'll actually put our house on the market cause they have a large buyers list ready to move to my city.
It's definitely a seller's market here in Portland, OR with low inventory as well. That's a good point about the ARV's being inflated too!

given the current condition of the market, what's the general consensus regarding residential distressed property listings on the RMLS with respects to any profitability to be had? Are these listings generally going to have inflated purchase prices in a sellers market? Or is it truly a driving for dollars game?
