Meant to add rent increases, although I haven't totally earned my sticker for that just yet.

Impossible , imo to guess roi without knowing what you are encountering.

Fannie Mae, page 82 of their latest 10-Q says "...foreclosure levels were lower than what they otherwise would have been during the first nine months of 2011 due to delays in the processing of foreclosures caused by continuing foreclosure process issues encountered by our servicers, changes in state foreclosure laws, and new court rules and proceedings.

I find that small inexpensive properties that rent for $550 to $650 per month are mane able for the majority of the renters I have encountered in this area.

Hey BP,I'm encountering a lot of leads who have high equity in their homes but the current value is a lot lower than what they purchased it for, so they are reluctant to sell at a price that works for me (60-75% minus repairs of market value).My question is, is there a strategy out there to try to convert these leads to a deal or is this just the way of the land and a deal will come when proper motivation is present?

The main problem you will encounter in this type of scenario is that the tenants probably are used to living without the usual structures in place.

I'm also hoping someone will comment on this potential deal and see what people before me have encountered or done.

For anyone who's used these services, have you even encountered a buyer or seller who couldn't or didn't want to use them?

My council felt that my personal hobbies (boating, skiing, hunting, off-roading, etc...) were more likely to expose me (e.g someone gets hurt on my boat/dirtbike/ranch, etc...) than my rental investments, so it is important to protect your interests in an LLC from any personal judgments you could encounter also.

You might encounter this if you buy (or sell) owner financed notes or buy notes from a lender.NPER and RATE can be used to compute the number of payments or rate, if you know everything else.
