Any time there is a realtor involved, you are paying a commission (OK, the seller pays but the buyer pays indirectly).

A few successful landlords have programs where they upgrade or refresh things in a rental even when the tenant is there.

I've been involved with Real Estate for a few years now but have not taken it to the next level yet.

I am considering getting an attorney involved, but I don't want to end up spending more time and money than it's worth.

Only you and the seller are involved in the second, so its up to the two of you to agree on terms (rate, amorization period, balloon period).

You could consider refinancing your primary residence using a HUD rehab loan (allows up to 97 ARV) for homeowners needing to make repairs as low as 5,000 (program will advance up to 50% of labor/materials at closing to minimize your out of pocket expense).

Greetings,Re: Reply to GA Tax SalesAlthough I have been involved with Tax Sales Nationwide for a few years now, I have not heard about the State of GA Delinquent Real Estate Tax Sales being halted.

Given the amount involved you will need higher priced property or a few mid priced properties.I know a developer that did a deal where they sold a specific floor in a commercial building.

Hey Brian - I think you'll find that many opportunities open themselves up to you as you get more involved here.

If you are looking to get referrals from folks on the site, I recommend you start to get involved and contribute.
