Good luck with your new ventures and keep us posted on your progress as you move forward.

Hi, I am evaluating a flip and wanted to get thoughts from the community regarding a negotiation strategy.There is a foreclosed townhouse with significant foundation problems (40-60k based on 2 estimates).

I've been in the analysis paralysis stage for quite awhile and reading this may have just been the catalyst for progressing forward.

If the property has been vacant for an extended period of time (1 year for Progress Energy Carolinas), expect the utility company to require a meter base inspection.

Progress update...My next batch of mailings are printed and stuffed in envelopes.

Not too legal, so, it is a definite work in progress, a pet project of sorts.

This is something you should be evaluating monthly.

Learn to evaluate prospective deals quickly and only spend time on due diligence when an opportunity is solidly in your crosshairs and in contact with principal(s).Suggest you look for property owners in distress and negotiate super-bargains rather than buying at trustee sales or other auctions.
