Help me structure a deal

I have a motivated seller with a house that's worth about $70k looking to sell for $50-$55. Not really a lot of room for a flip or a wholesale. There is zero debt on the property. What other strategies can I try here? I'm thinking about possible owner finance and then rent it out but seems like a lot of hassle just for a couple hundred dollar spread per month. Is a lease option the same thing? Any other plays here? Thanks for the help.

Hi Derek,

A master lease/option would be similar to owner financing because you would have the right to sublease the properties and still make those few hundred. Even though it is just a few hundred today it will be even more tomorrow. $150 cash flow today & $700 unearned income potentially for the rest of your life, kids and grand kids life tomorrow.

Do you have any additional information beds/baths sq. ft. repairs etc...
