It just puzzles me how a large bank (US Bank in this instance) can get caught up in such a shadey deal.

Now it's just putting the puzzle together on paper, that's all.

I'm kind of in the same boat, a new wholesaler facing 2 hurdles: 1) Finding FMV without the MLS, and 2) estimating repair costs.Unfortunately there is no quick way to do it unless you have access to the MLS, however there are pieces to the puzzle that can be put together like the title companies, the appraisers, the tax records, etc.

At meetups like this you never know who will bring the missing link to your success puzzle or you may provide it to others.14 more days....

I thought about removing the iron, but it would be a ordeal removing it..That huge master bath is a puzzle to me....

I also find it pretty puzzling that the net worth figures are as high as they are given the incomes cited to get to an equivalent rung on the ladder.

I will admit my negotiating skills are not sharp at all which may have been a small piece of the puzzle to why I "failed" in wholesaling.

But, clearly there is some missing piece of the puzzle given the point I'm trying to make.That missing piece could be a legal exemption somewhere, it could be case law, it could be that the banks lawyers feel they can support their client's actions, or something completely different.

I know a lot from studying for the past two years, but it's like a puzzle that needs to be pieced together; hence, the need for a mentor (not saying I know everything- I expect to be learning for lifetime).

I had a lot of the pieces to the puzzle but didn't really understand how they fit together.I really appreciate the description of what the different players in the field do as well.
