@Tom V.

@Chris Seveney

Thanks for the feedback.  I've sold 2 like this without an agent.  First one was 10 years ago and I used an attorney.  Second one, I found a buyer and just used my agent to handle the paperwork.  Didn't think of that on the buying side.  Sounds like I'll be lining up a title company and talking to my agent in the morning.  Thanks again.

Hey BP folks!  I hope you're investing endeavors are going well.

Tough market right now in the area and price range I'm looking, low inventory.

I found an off-market property from a landlord that's tired and wants the property gone.  If I move forward with this deal, how do I move forward?  Who needs to be involved.....attorney, title company?  If this works out, I'll be paying cash, no mortgage.

Thanks in advance.

@Seth Teel What area of Louisville?

I hope I can share many more!  :)

@Nicole Clemens $40k

@Brian Adams is a BP member  and will take care of you.

I looked through a house recently in a neighborhood that I'm always watching.  Great neighborhood and houses are appreciating there.  The house is listed at $150k.  Was previously listed at $160k.  Arv is $180-189.  House is solid but outdated and would require about $20k worth of upgrades.

I looked up the owner through tax record website.  Found them on facebook and we chatted for a while.  They are motivated to sell.  Their monthly mortgage is $1200 per month and about $125k payoff on their mortgage.

I'm interested in doing a live in flip, staying there 1.5-2 yrs, updating along the way, then selling.

I have the ability to use a second VA loan but it has to be $144k minimum and this house isn't worth that to me.

I could go FHA but really want to keep my cash free while looking for other buy/holds.

I've never been in a creative finance or owner carry deal.  What can I offer?  Recommendations?  I know they want to sell and they contacted me again today, despite having an agent.

@Mike D'Arrigo  You're absolutely right.  I established my property criteria and numbers that I was after and it didn't take long for me to realize this was rare.  I'm still looking though!

@George Despotopoulos  PM me.  I have a lender that I'm happy with but I'd be willing to discuss rates with you.  Thanks for reaching out.

@Peter Vekselman  I aprreciate the feedback.  I purchased this property a year ago.  As soon as we had a tenant in, I knew we had a good property and everything went as planned as far as numbers go.  I've been looking for others with similar numbers but they have been hard to find.  I have my eye on one now and we're preparing an offer.

How would you market for this strategy you're suggesting?  Craigslist?

Louisville, KY.  This is my hometown.  I'm still serving Uncle Sam, but plan on retiring and returning to Ky in less than 2 yrs.
