I'm thinking about setting up a "We Buy Houses" booth at my local swap meets.

As Wayne mentioned, we don't know your numbers (or your loan position, come to think if it) so if this is really 'equity-challenged' you might consider selling your note or swapping it for an asset with a different problem.

To those ends, I would very much like to get in touch with like-minded realtors, who are technologically inclined and would like to swap ideas.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

The building is 15 years old so most of the infrastructure will be in the 1/2 half of it's life... hot water heaters, roof, furnaces, and appliances will all need to be swapped out in the next 5 - 10 years.If it's been on the market that long, the bank may be a bit flexible.

The program that I am thinking is - Obtain a conventional 1st mortgage (I'm pre approved for 8 more) Use existing money for 20% downpaymentAfter a few weeks of closing swap out the downpayment for a 2nd RRSP mortgage.I am told that TD no longer does RRSP mortgages.

Each model has its merits depending on what needs to be accomplished, and we can swap examples on merits of each until we are blue in the face.
