So 300/rent is unheard of.

You will also find Duplexes, Triplexes, and Quads - something which is unheard of in Northern, VA area. 

For example, in Pittsburgh pa I get over 50% cash on cash return which would be unheard of in some of the higher priced markets.

@Abel Rodriguez, if $25k is common for the area (or at least not unheard of), just how rough is the neighborhood?

However, the numbers may not work out.It's interesting, and fortunate, that you're able to project out to 2020 where your wife will be stationed but not totally unheard of.

It is not unheard of, but I'd imagine it to be a bad business practice not to allow flexibility if it spoils the deal. 2% buyers commissions in my area are very rare. most are 2.5-3% sometimes subtracting a small transaction fee (something else that is odd to some and common to others).

@Michael O.Hi Michael, you'll definitely find more wholesalers focusing on the smaller properties, but wholesaling a larger property (50 units +) is not unheard of. 

@Freddie WilliamsHi Freddie, getting a 0% down seller finance deal is not unheard of.

It's not unheard of to help them figure out a place to move to and set them up with a moving company or uhaul and such. 

Talking to people who have owned them longer than me from the provider I used it’s not unheard of to have no maintenance the first couple years (out side of a tenant turnover).The houses I’ve bought anyways have entirely new mechanicals, roof etc so it’s unlikely any of that will go bad in the first 5-10 years.
