So, I have been around Real Estate sitting on the side lines waiting with all kinds of excuses.So, I recently purchased my first property at the Sheriff sale held in Mercer County.

Thank you all for the kind introductions earlier.I am looking to do my first deal.

Not saying that will get you out of trouble but it will help as you're building your case if there is black mold. virtually every rehab homes has black mold in it.. .. we just spray it with Clorox and call it a day.. but I get it .. there are different kinds and I guess the wrong kind can make you sick.. boy you should see some of the homes we go into  IE hoarder homes they look like full blown petre dish's mold of every variety and they seem to be OK..

The kitchen isn't so bad but I'm wondering what kind of increase in rent do you think I can get if I updated this one and a half bathrooms with a simple white subway tile to replace the pink and new vanities with storage?

Every home listed in a flood zone in my area has been on the market forever, no one wants to pay that kind of money (more like $2800 annually here).

Wish I knew this information ahead of time I was shopping for a Vehicle to see what kind of payment they could work out for me and some places ran my credit and didn't even ask me i didn't know they ran it till they said "I just pulled your credit" my credit dropped 100+ points in a 5 day period wrecking my credit looking for the right vehicle and payment plan. 

Per your kind response, so how does the lender's appraisal of the house come into play?

Hello Pike,BP will delete any ARMLS information that I post, so if you will PM me your email address and what kind of information you need I will send it.

I have had a few interesting conversations with 2-3 people in my circle of influence that want to participate in REI, specifically my recent success, but they are both gun-shy in committing to any specific "complex" real estate deal, and have sub-$5,000 amounts they are wanting to commit.Without getting too much into the minutia of their mindsets and arguments, it is important to note that they are willing to give a much smaller amount of money for advertising and, in return, are expecting a faster, albeit, higher risk return through wholesale deals obtained during that time frame.My actual question for you is: have you ever structured any kind of private funding "deal" that officially goes towards your marketing in exchange for a piece of the net profits for (insert time period)?

I called a couple of places but they said that they don't handle this kind of transaction.Thx
