Creative wholesale: Can it be done with this Foreclosure?
Please help me with your creative skills guys!
I tried this foreclosure deal with the usual 65% minus repairs (5% wholesale)
But the numbers don't work. What else can be done with this?
Seller is in foreclosure. 1 month before the sale
ARV is $120K
Owes $50k
Past due $5k
Repairs $30K
No other judgements or liens
= -$7000
What else could be done to wholesale this deal??
Thank you in advance for all the feedback!

What is the home worth in its current condition and what is owed on the liens(s)? If it's underwater, it should be reviewed for a short sale.
