Take the resources that would chase down/harass the individual and use it take down the real tax cheats: business, from small mom & pops to giant corporations.

Normally, you could say that the bulk buyers could suck up more properties but the problem is they can't get them online faster than the army of individual investors out there could.

I am looking for a way to make extra money in my "spare time" from home.

The truth is, the recent temporary extension of the payroll tax cut is being funded by a "small fee" tacked onto governemnt backed mortgages (30 years of extra fees for homebuyers from now on [and probably forever] to pay for a temporary - 6 months - payroll tax cut).

If they can't then they can cough up the extra dough to buy the property.

For instance, lease a large property near a campus for the son/daughter, then sublease the extra rooms.

I could incorprate these changes into the side to be renovated, but retrofitting them into the already completed side would be more difficult.I am looking to hear anyone's experience as to what the cost of a sprinkler sytem/ alarm system might be and if there are other incremental costs or regulations that should be anticipated that I haven't thought of.For the extra $500 per month income and some decrease in insurance costs, I am motivated to do this, but the regulatory hassels are less as a two unit.What do you think?

I have not spoken to the owner yet (but will) but my friend also said that the property has had full vacancy for over 3 years (mostly elderly people), Utilities are metered individually, refrigerator, gas range, washer/dryer hookup in each unit.

With the banks gone, less bids and more individual winners.In 2010, the top winner invested $372,081.27 in total.

Since we measure individual projects and aim to place capital as quickly as possible, this is the best measurement for us.
