YEAR of ACTION!!!!!

I am looking at a house that the owner filled chapter 13 bankruptcy a few years back. She can no longer make the payments and wants out. She owes less than ARV. It is not a good deal unless I a can negotiate a short sale with the bank. Has anyone worked a deal like this? Any advice?

@Christopher B. is right. Its all about relationships. Start with the people you know. Make a list and systematically work it. Tell everyone what you are doing. Also check out the KnoxREI.

Ben,

Welcome to BP. I am also from knoxville. You should check out the Knox REI. They meet once a month on Tuesdays. Great for networking and packed full of information. Check out their website. Good luck on your future investing.

Ben, 

Welcome to B.P. The power and knowledge of this community is tremendous. I went to the Than Merril 2 hour free sales pitch today as well. I don't know if the information provided at the three day seminar is worth 200 dollars or not. What I do know is every subject to be covered at the seminar you can information right here for free. If there is not a blog on the subject all you have to do is ask and one of the thousands of B.P. members will gladly give you some advice. I love this community. Good luck, happy investing, and God Bless.   

Welcome to REI and B.P. Look forward to getting to know you.

@Mark Gruetzmacher. Thank you for the advice. I checked the place out. It was a dump. 

I have an opportunity to purchase a mobile home for cheap in Knoxville. I still need to inspect the home to see the repairs that need to be made. What do I need to look for? Any tips, questions or things to look for during my due diligence?
