This might sound like trouble, and it actually can be unless you find the right tenants and are careful about setting up the ground rules of the tenancy.

Flipping, although most popular a decade ago, can still be done if you know how to calculate your ideal purchase price. You must also be flexible and be prepared to alter your strategies as the market changes.
Wholesale Real Estate: There was a huge movement several years ago to encourage real estate investors to flip houses. It didn’t really take much encouragement at the time because money could be made almost no matter what you did or didn’t do right. The housing market was on fire and prices were claiming almost daily. You could buy a house for $200k, do nothing to it at all and sell it for $225k in a month. Those were the days.

If you pay cash for your properties no one will demand that you have insurance, but for your own sake, protect yourself.
Wholesale Real Estate – Woodbridge VA: Houses that are bought on mortgages are usually required to keep insurance on them at least until the mortgage is paid off. After the buyer owns the house outright, it’s no longer anyone’s business whether they have their home insured or not. This is also the case with investment property. Most lower priced investment houses are bought with cash by real estate investors so when the deed is transferred, it’s no one’s business if they insure their investments.
