I'm uncertain how much that new position makes or if I'll get it but I feel that I've got a good chance because I've been approached by several of my managers and someone in that department saying I need to apply for it.I say that not to brag but to provide context because the extra W2 income will have an effect on these calculations if there are transaction fees and or if the 8% is before or after taxes because it will increase the amount of money I save each month.Ross Gleason

I understand your thinking and I understand why some investors take that approach. 

Getting ready to approach a seller about a land contract.

We have thought about approaching them and letting them build a building to suit in exchange for rent for a set number of years since we do not have the capital to do it on our own.

But - we also wanted a vacation rental way more than we wanted a long term rental property, and don't really have a down payment for another property.Anyway, I'd like to hear things I may not be considering, and I'd love to hear some advice for how to approach this decison!

So Zillow approached us a few months back and threatened us since we were a large property management company they will be charging us.

Just trying to get a bit more information before doing my first approach, and this seems to be the one information that seemed like it should matter, but I can’t seem to get lots of informations about it! 

Approach by a rent to own company that wants it for its client.offer 1: rent-1000/month for 4yrs            Buy: @ end of lease for 117koffer 2: rent - 1200/month for 2yrs              Buy: @ end of lease for 125kit’s my first rental property and my real estate long term plan is buy and hold.

On one hand I'm apprehensive to spend a lot on marketing but on the other I feel like I need a different approach.  

The best approach would be to base the rent and occupancy projections on a Market Survey of current similar class properties near the hospital.
