  • Updates and Issues
    FAR 067 Expected Air Date: 9/17/17 News:
    • Partners REIT announces distribution of $0.02083 per unit. 2 cents per unit. So my 1000 units would make me $20! There are 45,731,683 Units outstanding. Thus the payout is $952,591.
    • Billboard for Offerpad. We will buy your home. Sounds great. Another version of “if I can’t sell your home I’ll buy it for cash.” Offers appear to be 12% below current value, when all fees are factored in.
    • Article CNBC. Flipping on the decline as prices increase. 5.6% 2nd quarter, 6.9% 1st quarter.
      • According to NAR, 5M existing homes sold in the US in 2016.
      • 300,000 sold by investors or house flippers. (6%)
      • Avg price, 240,000.
      • RE Investors sold $72B in 2016. Not a trifling amount.
    Scams:
    • Corey, from West Allis, WI “When is it OK to give my contractor money up front. All of the contractors I speak with want half the money before they will begin the work. What should I be doing to protect myself?”
    • Scam is where someone gets your money for nothing (or very little effort).
      • Pre-payment for loan
      • Pre-payment for remodeling
    Emails: [email protected] Tell us where you’re from! Freddie, from Cleveland, GA: I’m looking at buying a manufactured home as a rental. It’s only $3,000 and I can get $350/month for it. It’s in rentable condition now and it’s on a lot that comes with the purchase price. What else should I be considering?
    • I’ll take it!
    • What’s the value of the land?
    • Consider selling under an installment land contract.
    Damon, from Akron, OH: “What is the most I should pay for my first flip?” Andy, from Snellville, GA: “I cracked up when I heard your answer to the lady from Rhode Island asking if she could get all the information about flipping houses for free on the internet. Would you spend a little more time going over all those topics again? It sounds pretty complex.”

    • Chastity is from Providence, RI: We are about to buy a small house up in Lincoln and it looks like a pretty good deal.

Please help us with anything you can about buying a home in a designated "historic" area.
