Ask what they spend most of their time on or their bottle neck in their deal process and how you can help alleviate that step.

Their experience has alleviated the issues I had with the other lessons learned, and has been worth every penny.Thank you for the advice.

Section 8 has alleviated as much of the headache as possible.

Most sellers have gotten used to dealing with pre-approved buyers, and it will alleviate a ton of stress for you if your agent and lender have a good working relationship.

Ownership will go solely to me. this alleviates them of the monthly payments and puts the liability on me. i'm figuring this would be a nominal loss/profit or breakeven due to closing cost, but at the very least I would avoid the hard money lender from foreclosing and having to go to courts to prove my stake in the property with the money I initially put downopt 2- WHOLESALING the deal. this would still be a buyout only i would go under contract and assign this to another investor to take over. my assignment fee would be what my down payment was on each property so this would be pretty much a break even. going this route i can avoid having to pay out of pocket for closing cost since the end buyer/investor would pay that. note: i'm the listing agent on one of the property and another broker is listing the other property at 1% commission, with both paying 3% to the buyers agentlooking for feedback or creative ways to minimize my risk. if there is any possible way for a profit would love to hear that as well!
