So...I have a court hearing scheduled for March 23rd and am curious as to what everyone's opinion may be on this.I have been working with my attorney and he feels strongly that I can 1.)keep the home 2.) ask for a buy out of a few thousand above what my winning bid was or 3.)

HELOC from my primary home, which I initially leaned towards thanks to David Van Horn's opinion, with a 5.5% variable rate & I believe paid back over 3 years.

Hey guys, Was wondering if anybody had any advice to share about any complex seller financing/bank financing that you've done to close a deal? For example: If I found an apartment building that had a landlord that was...

Complete waste of time in my opinion but there are a lot of variables unknown to me.

I think the decision whether I need to rebuild or walk will also depend on the amount of work.For now, I have been getting mixed opinions on the extend of the restoration - it sounds like the outside, the structure overall is ok.

In my opinion there are too many factors involved in an association that could disqualify the property as a deal and many of those things are not feasible to acquire in a couple of hours or perhaps even days.

He is unaware of the questions that I asked in my post, I guess I just wanted to get other opinions as well.But yes, I can see how questions 4 and 8 might show how new I am, but if I don't ask about questions 3 and 7, how will I know what the landlord is willing to work with?

Or you can even use the state specific forums here to ask people their opinions on who to go to. 

I’m already finding that myself and I’m certainly not an expert lol.
