When you know that you can't make a deal work, how do you wrap up the interaction and preserve the relationship?

Just try to do Fix and Flip to preserve your income.  

I hired a property preservation company to do a lock change and photos.

When banks or asset management companies take back a property one of the first things they do is put property preservation in place.

Banks sometimes, but not nearly often enough, mow grass as part of their property preservation efforts on a vacant house.

As I am sure you know, tax liens wipe out a mortgage so they are not interested in earning a return, they just want to preserve their interest in the property.I was very interested in tax lien investing until I started attending auctions and seeing the same 5 people in suits instantly bidding 0% on almost every single property.Hope this helps!

Found a 4-plex that looked good from the outside and appeared to have been boarded up and well preserved.

For me, I prefer to preserve my options and pay the gains tax when it comes due.

We have ran a property management and preservation company here in Milwaukee for over two years and have networked with the MRIA on great projects.

i'm eager to get deep into wholesaling and because of my property preservation business, I'm seeing some great opportunities but I am stuck at that point.
