Contemplating buying one and flipping it. why you know a real estate broker who needs to make some money? in my parts the margins are not even close to worth my time . have not been in about 3 yrs . sold my last flip like 2.5 yrs ago. nothing has poped up for sale even close to worth my time . and my partener on all flips is a agent so that cost is not lost . also if times are slow it was usually worth having a shit box to work on to keep guys working . but now you are paying big bucks even for guys to come over after there 9to 5 to scab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sold my previous 2 homes myself. Attorney gets about $500 to handle the paperwork. Could keep it as a rental too.

Ez ryder Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 the reason i am thinking new home is building a new cabin/retirement home closer than what I have now . keeping cabin as a vrbo for summer and use it to sled out of for winter . I have a hunk of land on a hill overlooking a slew like 1.20 hrs out of mpls . to far to drive every day but close enough for a early monday morning every weekend . contemplating icf rambler with all 36 inch doors and roll in showers . ie the final resting place lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitholes selling for the same money as equal size decent homes. Only difference is the decent ones are gone in a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
