@Brent Coombs  Agreed, I talked to a mentor this morning (since the previous post) and he said essentially the same thing.

First: You don't know until you ask.

Second: The worst thing that happens is nothing.

I was doing some driving for dollars research and found a property in definite need of work. I brought the address home to find out the tax record mentions that it is a Life Estate. Quick google search says "A life estate deed is a deed form used to transfer property to one party automatically upon another party's death. The life tenant's interest is called a life estate. The interest that passes to the remainder beneficiary is called a remainder" My concern is if the house is under an estate for the owner they may not be able to sell? Anyone do a deal with someone thing like this in place?

I recommend hitting meetup.com or the meet up app. Lots of stuff in the area. I have attended 2 events this month.

I would also be interested in any recommendations. I attended an REI group meeting in Arlington and an Asset Protection Lawyer came in and discussed some interesting stuff. He helps set up legal entities a lot of the stuff he discussed was very interesting. Asset protection and tax perspectives.. Robert J Bluhm is the lawyer.

@Joe McCall

Joe, 

Thanks for the post, I got several ideas out of this and I can see great potential to grow into areas that would be missed with the normal spray and pray marketing.

Very interesting.

Sincerely,

Jesse
