Buying a "Move In Ready" House for $8,000 Sight Unseen... What Could Go Wrong?

Описание: Eddy breaks down a viral story involving an out-of-state couple who purchased a six-bedroom home in Saginaw, Michigan for just $8,000—sight unseen, without an inspection, and with the assumption that the property would be livable.

Eddy explains why this situation is less about predatory real estate practices and more about buyers ignoring fundamental rules of homeownership and due diligence. From waiving inspections to relying on verbal assurances and hazy videos, this case serves as a powerful example of what not to do when purchasing distressed property—especially from out of state.

Through the lens of both a home buyer and a real estate investor, the video explores why extremely low purchase prices often signal serious underlying issues, how inspections protect buyers rather than slow deals down, and why many properties priced for investors are unsuitable for owner-occupants without experience or capital.

This episode is a cautionary tale for anyone considering a “cheap” house and a reminder that affordable housing and low purchase prices are not the same thing.
