Quote from @Mani Sundaresan: I’m looking to connect with anyone who has direct experience purchasing properties through Cuyahoga County Sheriff Sales (Ohio) — particularly foreclosure auctions.A few specific questions I’m hoping to get clarity on:Has anyone here gone through the Cuyahoga sheriff sale process recently?

.🏡 September Existing Home Sales Tick HigherExisting home closings rose 1.5% from August and 4.1% year-over-year, according to the National Association of REALTORS®.

Selling one property to add a liquid, taxable account for college/retirement flexibility is a totally rational move — especially with kids about to hit college and you wanting to retire in 10–14 years.One thing to double-check:Since the sale is 11/24/25, make sure the tax estimates line up (federal, Colorado, NIIT if it applies, depreciation recapture).

In real estate, e-commerce, whatever.. there is, regardless of the age, always going to be snakeoil sales men and Tupperware salesman, or now the modern e-course motivational salesman like Wes Watson or Andrew Tate.Ultimately, the economy and the ways people create value have changed dramatically over the decades.

My client came to me to inquire about listing the sale of their 10 unit apartment complex.

The profit calculations would be your adjusted cost basis (purchase price, plus capital improvements, minus depreciation), subtracted from the net sale of the property (sales price minus closing costs and commissions), like others mentioned above.

Hello Everyone,Reports indicate 2025 is on track to be the worst year for home sales in U.S. history based on a news I saw recently, with buyer activity way down.For active investors - how are you adjusting your strategy?

Several recent transactions have had appraisals come in significantly HIGHER than their sales price including: two jumbo transactions and my own personal summer purchase.  

East Tennessee home sales in August saw a healthy 2.1% increase over July, and a 7.4% increase over August 2024.The median sale price was $376,200 — up 3% from the previous year.Total housing inventory has increased 31.4% from the previous year.Half of the homes sold were under contract in 28 days or less, up from 20 days a year ago.39% of homes sold for the asking price or above, with 18.3% selling for more than the asking price. 7.9% sold for at least $10,000 over asking and 2.7% sold for at least $25,000 over asking price.5.5% of all homes sold in August sold for more than $1 million, a new high mark for the year.The sale-to-list price ratio lowered slightly to 98.6%, still up from 97.6% a year ago.New construction was 11.9% of total home sales.August sales saw a boost over July, outperforming the prior year and bringing the year-to-date total up by nearly 4%.

You will probably maximize the sales price this way too as house hackers have lower down payment options than non-owner occupied investors.
