Hello BP.  I have been reading posts from the forum for the past few months, but this is my first post.  I have listened to 15 podcasts so far and I am soaking up everything I can.  

A little about myself.  I have been a general contractor and built 27 homes.  I am still in construction and I am looking into buying real estate as an investment.  I still have several GC friends, realtor in place, both residential and commercial financing contacts.   

I have made about a dozen offers on sfr's within the past 6 months and missed out for one reason or another on each of them.  

Currently I am looking at a multi unit investment and they offer seller financing for up to 3 years.  They want to meet in person with each of our realtors to hash out the deal next week.  My realtor says it is an old school way of doing a deal, but I am looking forward to it.  I would be interested in any feedback for people who have done deals like this in the past
