relative location to great sceneca highway? Thanks |

s***i 发帖数: 114 | 4 Both townhouses are on the west side of 270. Zip: 20874.
Close to 119(great sceneca hw) and lotte plaza. About 3 mins drive to get
into 270.
Market value I would say ~170k. I use 1/100 rule to gauge investment
properties. The closer, the better. |
s****g 发帖数: 1028 | 5 Yes, this can be consider a good deal, but all super good deal are bought by
realtor first, so unless you plan to get realtor license, do not dream
about it. You can get a much better chance at auction (and there are so many
of them right now)
For you, try to make partner quick, you make a lot more money with much less work. (dealing with deadbeat renter is no fun)

i***E 发帖数: 120 | 6 how to get this short sale townhouse.
I plan to have one too. |
s***i 发帖数: 114 | 7 1. Check the available/new listing daily
2. Be extremely familiar with the area
3. Send the the offer within 24 hrs and have the contract ratified
4. Have good relationship with listing agent, after you have been market for
a few years, you will know a lot of listing agents/brokers, they might
notify you before they put one house in market
5. Check what bank you are dealing with -- one lender or two, be familiar
with their style, one lender ususally is easier that two...
6. Know how much the owner owned the bank
7. A lot of experience you picked up along the way
......
I failed one short sale in Feb. The sale price is $119k and bank changed
their mind in the very last moment. It made me *&^%$#....so put everything
on paper asap if you could.....

I**********0 发帖数: 54 | 8 Are you an real estate agent ? |
s***i 发帖数: 114 | 9 I used two agents for my first two houses. One of them is good. The other
one is not. Even I have agent that time I still visit the house or go to
auction myself. I wrote the offer without bothering them sometimes.
It is much quicker/efficient to see the houses if you have licenses. Now I
am licensed in MD&VA since my investment properties are in both states. So
far VA’s cash flow is little better than MD’s. At end of the day the rate
of return could be same since VA’s house has more repairs….
