Property distress is when the property itself is in such bad condition that its value is affected. Properties that need large amounts of work to be livable are a form of property distress. Examples include leaking roofs, foundational problems, significant pest problems (termite damage), obsolete floor plans, etc. Property distress is the form of distress that involves the most work, but it is also the easiest form to target and the one you have the most control over finding. As a BRRRR investor, this is the type of distress you will typically find yourself targeting the most.
