@Russell Brazil,Aint it AWESOME how those who were bold enough to make the decision to get into the Real Estate business have been able to become wealthy by HELPING OTHERS!

I'm not so bold as to assume what OP can and can't afford or what his savings rate could be.

& really on the contract between the sellers & I is where I need info.Basically bellow is the contract I have made up so far, I put it in bold to make it different from the post.Purchase agreement for address.The property is sold in “as is” condition with work needed for the total sum of $20,000, To the party of (my name) or associated company.

If you are bold enough to share your address I am sure people would be willing to give their opinions.

What's the best flavor of ice cream? 

I would be asleep in my bed until 8am, at which time I would tape a large 8.5" x 14" piece of yellow paper to his door with the word "TRESPASSING NOTICE" in big bold letters at the top and the details of breach and criminal trespass below. 

My friend always says "Fortune favors the bold," and I feel that this story exemplifies that. 

Be bold enough to lay down the terms you want, as if you expect them to agree, not that you wonder if they will agree.

This is the first time I am doing this and am not sure how to proceed with finalizing the contract.Each GC has their own flavor of the bid with different level of details and explanation of what is covered and what is not covered.

It gives us an uphill climb that is completely unnecessary.The worst part of this Zestimate scam is that they show you the Zestimate in big bold numbers, but you have to dig deep to find the chart I posted here.
