Hi, I am a new member here in South Florida,  I am doing what I think my post people are doing by joining this site. Looking for freedom. I had that freedom before the financial crisis as I was self employed making great money, no boss or schedule. The Great Recession changed all that and I was forced into the rat race which was never a place I ever felt I belonged.  I have climbed my way up to a good paying sales gig, but I want more out of life. Unfortunately, I was forced to file for ch 13 a couple of years ago as I was still dealing with the financial fallout from '08 and '09. Since my financing options are limited due to the bankruptcy I was thinking that lease options were the best best way enter. I have a semi-organized plan, but before I invest a significant amount of time and money I was wondering how many here have actually used either lease options, master lease options or seller financing in the Dodd-Frank era? Have you had success? Thanks in advance for your feedback!
