Then, you can review the provided specifications to determine if they meet your preferences or are appealing to you.

However, I understand the appeal of paying down a loan to try to own it outright sooner.

That’s easier for a buyer to get into the deal, but for the seller it translates into them getting $38,400 for that same land instead of only $25k.The seller could also do a land contract, with essentially the same type of terms as with the owner-financed deal, the difference really being that instead of the seller having just a mortgage lien on the property till it’s paid off, they actually retain full ownership of the land until the contract is paid in full.I would have the seller tell you what they wanna get for it, then tell them you’ll add your fee to it and find a way to make it happen… and then come back a day or two later and tell them that you found a way for them to get their price, for you to get your fee, and for it to still be appealing to potential buyers… Then walk them through the deal, how it’ll work, explain to them how your way is more beneficial for them overall, explain how your way opens up the floodgates of potential buyers now, and most importantly explain to them that doing things deals this way is very common when buying and selling land, and how its really the only way for them to get what they want outta that land 👌If you act like an expert on the subject (or at least more knowledgeable than they are) I promise they’ll most likely just follow your lead because they trust you to get it done.And if they are truly motivated to sell, then they’ll welcome with open arms any creative thinking that will help them get what they want.Good luck!

I would expect a court to give tenant benefit of the doubt for anything not clearly defined.

I have some inventory in these markets that might appeal to you.

This might affect your STR loophole tax strategy so understand that before making the move.Update your listing to highlight features appealing to mid-term renters (e.g., home office, Wi-Fi).

Also @Nathan Gesner I saw you have written before that if they do serve you, you can always offer to pay them off then to save you time/money of going to court.  

I’m also thinking of taking them to small claims court.

Price CutHere’s the thing: spending $50k on repairs might help if it significantly changes the condition and appeal.
